Generally, when I have to use flash I prefer to do so using a square negative and a bracket that centers the flash over the lens. So I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this with a Leica M. 35mm flash brackets are a pain in the butt with *any* camera, but they seem particularly unwieldy with an M, because you need to remove the bottom of the camera when you load new film. I'm guessing the best approach might be to shoot by prefocusing and holding the flash the right distance above the lens, which sounds unwieldy but ought to work fine. Anyone have any experiences or hints they'd like to share? - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
