Go figure!) > And I, Marc, don't own an M8 yet and my IIIF did not require a cash outlay. I have a Bessa L I paid 60 bucks for. And two M6s which is my main Leica system. One I got in 1993 one in 1999. And I bought your big expensive Zeiss book which cost more than my Bessa L. Highly recommendable. Nice pictures Zeiss is Nice. Down the street is the Zeiss Mark IX projector at the Hayden planetarium. I'm going to check it out Friday. Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford do the narration. They couldn't get any big stars.
