Too right Karen, that's exactly what always annoyed me about the CLE, 
otherwise it's a brilliant piece of equipment, light, perfect automatic 
metering
(particularly for long exposures, wonderful soft shutter release, SCA 
dedicated flash. If they only rebuilt it with a couple of extra metering 
modes and
a couple of frames more in the VF/RF I wouldn't even think about a new 
Leica body.
