Owner Nigel is very knowledgeable and accomodating and I'd give him a 'must see' if I were writing a Leica tour guide. He's got a large selection of gear (and Crumpler bags) and he uses it and understands how it works. As I was gathering up to leave he asked if there was anything else he could help me with and I said 'yes, get my 75mm Summilux shots to be in focus'. He said 'have you tried a diopter correction eyepiece'? He then put various strengths on my M6 and I was surprised to see how much improvement I got with the +.5 version. My eyes already being corrected to a fare-thee-well with both contact lenses and reading bifocals I had thought no additional correction to the viewfinder of this high-priced camera would be needed. Wrong again. Thanks, Nigel. - --Bob Baron / Oklahoma City - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
