Any longer than the TTL? I think my only complaint about the M7 right now is that because of the contacts necessary to read the DX coding, its a little difficult to get the film out. Leica states in the handbook (Yes, I occasionally read the instructions ;)) that you can give the bottom of the camera a tap to move the spool down. Im a little nervous about hitting my precious leica. I might have to carry a leatherman tool around with the pliers to get it out. - -Mark On Tue, 14 May 2002, Douglas Herr wrote: > On Tue, 14 May 2002 08:01:20 -0700 (PDT) Mark Cohen <markc@binaryfaith.com> wrote: > > > Maybe Ill have to get an EOS for the next > > one. ;) > > Make sure you leave it switched "on" and in the right metering/film advance/AF/CF mode at all times, day and night, and carry lots of spare batteries! > > > Doug Herr > Birdman of Sacramento > http://www.wildlightphoto.com > -- > 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
