[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I'm with Eric and JG on this one - I carry it every day in NYC. I may lack common sense, but I do not lack amusing photographs. Try it for a while - you'll probably worry less about it. If you want to carry a camera, but are afraid of (what? You didn't say), then why not consider a lesser P&S? I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you're afraid to carry an M6, you should be afraid to carry a CL as well. They're both expensive Leicas. Besides, the camera might be only $500, but you'll probably have a $1500 lens on it anyway. Aside: went to dinner yesterday with my wife, mother, brother, his wife and their new son. Somehow, I forgot my watch. I never do that - how incredibly irritating! I was uncomfortable the whole time. But I didn't forget the M6. :) C. - -----Original Message----- From: V8PWR@aol.com [mailto:V8PWR@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 7:46 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] cl vs ql17?

When ( this almost never happens ) I'm " off M6 " , I feel the same sensation as when you loose your watch . Now my environment poeple is getting used to the fact .
