It doesn't look that old and with the lens feels a bit heavier than the old M3, but I went wandering aroung the botanical gardens in the evening and was surprized at how quick it was to focus/meter and use and it is much quieter than my other cameras [bar the Rollei]. I doubt the first film will be a masterpiece, but the challenge is there, and I'm going to have lots of questions for the group. Alastair
