Europe/Leicas | I'm back from 2 wks in eastern Europe, happy to report that my 2 M6's and | lenses functioned perfectly and returned intact. | As a somewhat-collector and avowed camera-nut, I of course had my eyes peeled | on the hordes of tourists. I did not see even one single M Leica. | Hi, I live in France and travel for my business in East Europ and Russia and that's true, you don't see very often people with Leica M First of all the price : common tourists use P&S or SLR. Maybe because it's unsafe to show an expensive camera and it's not in the philosophy of the M to be seen or heard. I mostly carry my M6 under my vest or in a cheap plastic bag (in Russia). Max
