Ms. Olesin gave me an estimate of turnaround time--3 weeks. I sent it off and got it back exactly 21 days from the date they received it. > P.S. I knew I should have bought my wife an M6:-( Nope. There's nothing like a practically perfect automatic camera such as the Minilux. If it didn't exist, I would have to have a Contax G. When I get stressed, I'm all thumbs, left-handed thumbs at that. It's like when I played amateur soccer (football). I normally played midfield but occasionally had to play forward. Whenever I got a chance to score, I would momentarily freeze up, then kick wide or else half-ass kick it, and the keeper would scoop it right up. I'm like that with the M6 when I'm in a rush, but there's always the trusty Minilux to save the day. Richard
