I've stopped using mine other than periodically excercising the shutter, and it is in perfect condition. Maybe one day when people discover that the only way to buy a .85 Leica is through the ridiculous a la carte program, they will discover the true value of the pre-ttl .85 M6. And then they will pay me what I deserve! ;-) -dan c. At 04:41 PM 12-11-04 -0500, Michael Hintlian wrote: >Nathan... > >Thank you for your comments.
