Leica M's that is. Salient points: 125th sych speed, yea we could have guessed that. Vertical-travel laminar metal focal-plane shutter; 1 s – 1 /2000 s and B Ratcheted film advance when needed. Dimensions ( mm/ w x h x d): 135.5 x 81.0 x 25.5 mm Weight (body) 425 g, (a M6 weighs 500 g's) Finish: Metal cover plates silver-finished I'm excited about anything Rollei makes with the exception of a Prego. I'm more fond of Ragü its more mold resistant in the refrigerator Its nice to have that Zeiss option. HCB thought that. I'm heavily invested in its Hasselblad lenses and can vouch for them. Zeiss is nice. Mark Rabiner Portland, Oregon USA http://www.rabinergroup.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
