Glad we could help. Regards, Charles ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregory Rubenstein" <gcr910@msn.com> To: <lug@leica-users.org> Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2005 6:38 PM Subject: [Leica] Solved: Cold Weather M Focusing Charles Hehl nailed my cold weather focusing problem. Was shooting while wearing a pair of clever new mittens on which the upper half flips back to allow one's fingers to grasp things. The upper half of the mitten, when flipped back, apparently blocks the smaller viewing window in varying degrees (depending on hand position), causing the focusing/metering block to fade or vanish. Never happened to me before, hence never occurred to me 'til Charles' comments. Took out an M after reading his post, intentionally blocked the window, then moved the offending finger and, voila. Now know how Homer Simpson feels when he says, "Doh?" Thank you, Charles. Greg _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
