He actually uses it, but refuses to peel the protective plastic off of the baseplate, because he is afraid that it will get scratched. I tried to explain to him that part of the charm of a BP camera is that when it gets worn you see the brass come through it etc. He looked at me like I had just asked him if he had ever slept with his mother, then took a look at my battered black TTL with the dented baseplate and put the MP back in to the bag. He then mumbled something about him not wanting his camera to play with my camera, because he was afraid it may pick up some bad habits. What to do?
