10 rolls in Hawai'i Big Island, we shall see if there are any keepers... 
Anyway, it looks like the M7 RF is out of alignment again (the camera just 
got a RF re-aligned 2 months ago but that's because the camera was dropped 
then)? The symptom is that if I put a square corner inside the RF patch and 
rotate the camera 45 degrees or so, the image is skewed and will not match 
up. Horizontal and vertical lines that are the same orientations of the 
camera match fine. I double checked it w/ the M6 and it works fine with it 
so it looks to be a problem with the M7 RF :-(

Fortunately it's still covered under the warranty and Passport... 
grrrrr.... back to NJ it goes....
