Re: [Leica] Creative Excuses

["SonC \(Sonny Carter\)" <sonc@sonc.com>]

I own a massive collection of junk cameras, many of them brought to me from "God's waiting room," by my father-in- law
who hits all the garage and estate sales in Central Florida.  Many of them are 50's and 60's cameras with lots of
chrome, but not too much worth.

My shooting camera is a Leica M6, and Kathy thinks that I keep my "good cameras" on the shelf, out of harm's way.

I've been thinking (along with encouragement from the guys on the #Leica IRC, that I should sacrifice all my "good
cameras." and buy an M7.  Think she'll go for the ruse?

Regards,

Sonny
