Hi All
Did any of you watched The X Files Sunday nite?(is it broadcast outside
of U.S.?)  The story of
a photog trying to capture 'Mr. Death' on film?  near the end, the
photog grabs a 3F off the shelf
(his normal camera looked like a Cannon T90, it and he just took a
bullet) and as he looked into the
viewfinder you see M6 meter arrows flashing!  I rolled out my chair
laughing! He got the shot!
HCB would be proud!!!

Funny aside, I have a custom painted t-shirt modeled  after the Leica ad
of their first point&shoot;
it shows the face of a woman w/the camera at her eye and the words Leica
in script.
The rappers think Leica is pronounce  Lie-Kia and think it's name of my
wife! I answered,
no...it's my mistress....;-)
