[Leica] Camera Porn

[Dennis Kushner]

I still have my Canon F1N although sold all of my
pro lenses. Also my Pentax MX from 1977. I do have to sell my M6
that I had CLA's & frames fixed & latest rangefinder 3 years ago.
My medical use of oxygen makes it too difficult to do street shooting
in NYC & Philly. Considering a Q3 monochrome to use nearby my home.
