It may be a bit larger, but just about everything else about it is great.

As nice as the CL/CLE's are/where, get one of the Bessas instead - for about the same price you get a brand new camera whose electronics aren't likely to go flaky soon (among other things). (plenty of info on Gandy's site) If it's good enough for Lee Friedlander, it's good enough for anyone... :-) tim _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
