UV, apparently, messes up the molecular structure of the white ones causing them to break more quickly if exposed to a lot of sunlight. Whether this will be a factor for the average bloke doing photography; who knows? - -- Roger The LEG (Leica Enthusiasts Mailing List) http://www.topica.com/lists/leica
