I saw pictures of the body. And it was not operable, because the advance lever was broken off. Minimal damage for a 25,000 foot drop, no? And like I said, Leica said they could repair it for around $1,200. That's Pretty dang good for an SL(2) Mot, motor and 90 Summicron. Neck strap act as a parachute? Right. This is a joke, and I'm overreacting to your note, eh? ========================== Eric Welch Grants Pass Daily Courier
