Re: [Leica] LHSA

I have found the magazine quite interesting what with articles by Tom 
A. and Henning W. The best way is to find out for yourself. There is a 
generous sampling of articles at the link below. If you like the 
articles and want more then subscribe.

and click on "Viewfinder"

The catalog is mostly an exercise in humour. Some of the prices asked 
are truly breathtaking. There are some reasonable deals but not many. I 
have attempted to buy a Leicameter from one relatively famous member 
for about two years now. I email him about it with every new catalog. 
He responds that he has just moved and it that he will dig it up. That 
is the last I hear from him until the next catalog comes along and the 
da** meter is still listed! I email again and... It has become a bit of 
joke in my household. Mind you we are somewhat short on entertainment 
and easily amused like most country cousins. You can take it as a given 
that most LHSA members are getting on in years.
