My "Leica leanings" began 32 years ago with a post war IIIc and Summicron 50mm f-2 lens, a Gossen Luna Pro did the metering. Prior to that a Petri rangefinder camera, f-1.9, I purchased new in 1958 at the main PX, Seoul South Korea. For processing of film and prints, I used the Army facilities on base. An old Master Sergeant taught this kid photography---something that kept me away from the Korean whorehouses and ginmills. (Well, sometimes.) Mark, at no time did I ever claim to be a professional photographer, it's unlikely that I ever will, I leave the professionalism to guys like you. I will always dislike Jane Fonda and her kind! And should you have a problem with that Mark, may I suggest that you find and use the Delete Key! Ed Birch. R5, M6, M3 and wartime IIIc. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
