I think it's cool! :-) HOWEVER? You couldn't get me back to it unless you gave me "FREE FILM!" Somebody else to "SOUP IT!" and scan it to computer! :-) Oh Yeah make all the contact sheets and match with each roll of sleeved negs! . However! most importantly? "PAY ME HANDS0MELY TO USE IT." :-) Oh yeah I was going to say, "supply a LEICA to shoot it." But I forgot I still have an M6, well one of my Grandson's is using it and when he has some cool images? He brings them over and flaunts them in my face with big smiles! "Hey Gramps real cool this film stuff! I like it better than digital!" Then he waves sleeved rolls of negs in my face and laughs! "Smart ass!" :-) But he's a very good photog! So I don't mind one iota! :-) Oh yeah he shoots digital also. But film is #1! However? Think about how many rolls it takes for 300,000 images in the archive vaults of the National Archives of Canada and a whole bunch more in the National Art Gallery of Canada. And probably another 100,000 in my personal files? No I don't think I'd be too excited going back to shooting a documentary assignment project and hauling the amount of film for a month? Digital is my baby and I don't have to keep checking? "HOW MANY FRAMES DO I HAVE LEFT ON THE ROLLS ?" In the LEICAS HANGING ABOUT MY BODY? :-) Oh they were the days!! GO BACK TO IT?? NOT A HOPE IN HADES!":-) cheers, Dr. Ted Grant O.C. -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Peter Dzwig Sent: August-29-16 12:54 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] PESO: Lluis with a classic Leica, photographed with a classic Leica Glad to see you guys using real Leicas (just joking) AND FILM!! ;-) Peter >> On Aug 25, 2016, at 5:09 PM, Nathan Wajsman <photo at frozenlight.eu> >> wrote: >> >> Lluis had an M3, I had an M2.
