I too, can barely afford my Leica stuff. It took me eight years to buy two SL2's and seven lenses in the 70's. My point is that UNLIKE high-priced audio equipment, where the $20,000 turtable and $10,000 cartridges are to be found, Leica photography equipment is quite reasonably priced. You can get an entire R8 kit for less that the price of many popular speakers. Get your FREE Email at http://mailcity.lycos.com Get your PERSONALIZED START PAGE at http://my.lycos.com
