[Leica] M6 prices are $$$

[Wayne Torry]

I wonder what my one owner (Me) Canon EF is worth? On the shelf next to a
pristine A-1.
I wonder if all of my film hardware would fetch enough cash to buy Doug’s
Sony A7Riii????
All of these 1970s bodies are crying out for mercury cells. Too bad.
If we only had Kodachrome 25 to fill up all of those cameras!
Cheers!
