A softer, more friendly, rubber wind on lever with latex shutter dial; maybe an inflatable plastic seat cover stashed in a oversize M grip; the grip being entirely made out of silica gel. Perhaps there would be toilet-tissue top-plates to avoid that chafing problem... I hear they're working on the new M6 also being trained to carry your exposed films to the processing lab too! Apparently the circuitry and animatronics required for total self processing was too expensive!!! Mmmmmm, that's comfort! ;-) Jem ================ Martin Howard wrote: > > 3.
