I nearly cried.. I had spent 15 years wishing I could afford one and I was finally granted that opportunity. 2 nights ago that very camera fell off the car seat onto the ground. Contacting the cement from 4 feet on the rewind lever. Once again I was nearly brought to tears. Its on its way to leica, not 4 months out of passport warranty. :( Luckily I have a M6TTL Chrome to back it up. Not as good and Not my favorite, but it will do. :) - -Mark On Tue, 30 Apr 2002, Brian Reid wrote: > > > I KNOW that you can't possibly be suggesting that the media used to capture > > images formed by light passing through a lens accounts for your M images > > being "more emotional." ;-) > > When I hold my Leica I feel more emotional than when I hold my Canon G1.

God knows how to come in through any kind of window, but the stained glass windows just work better to solve the problem at hand. > > -- > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html > - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
