Hugh:

Body: 1956 (Canadian!)
Lens: 1957

Contrats on the M! Be prepared to have an empty wallet from now on.

Put a meter on top to hide those ugly marks. This will also stop most of
the accidental shutter trips.

Try it for awhile without the handgrip. You may find you prefer it after a
while. If not then add it. I use one with heavy and/or long lenses but not
usually with the shorter ones. You might want to wait anyway until Tom A.
has his in production. If its anything like his Rapidwinder it is sure to
be a winner.


I get fingerprints on mine all the time and don't worry about it. That's
what the tee shirt tail is for!

PS: If you don't have a hood for that Summicron get one!
