Alex, you naughty boy... Can't you just leave the hornet's nest by itself?

<br><br>

As of now, Claude's yellow M4... But I'm planning on having my M2 painted in VW's <u>Rohrgrün</u> (Cane Green) one of this years colors for the Touareg, at my body and paint shop. I'm just trying to figure out how to dismantle it. ;-)

The strap on my M6TTL is a modified Leica strap with leather

protectors. I basically got rid of the Leica doodads and made it

into a conventional strap. It's easy. The strap is very

comfortable.

 

The Abrahamsson Rapidwinder is great for fast shooting and when you

want to be unobtrusive. The Rapidgrip is the shiny middle style. I

put the leather on myself, Sad to cover all that shine but makes the

grip infinitely gripable. The Softie is a special edition--Portland

LHSA meet. I ought to keep it at home and use a ordinary Softie.

 

I take this camera out with me every day. The stuff I have on it is

absolutely useful.

 

Here is a close-up of the strap. Shot with a a Pentax ist D and an

old screw mount Takumar 55/1.8.<div>00AITF-20709584.jpg.fecd3faaf8a9d25f6c106c7244e7023f.jpg</div>

Just a quick shot. This one probably has a few more miles on it than most of these other fancy Leicas. Black taped 1m series M2 with 35 'lux asph and well worn hand made strap. Pic makes it look a lot dustier than it is.<div>00AIVi-20710484.jpg.bb907cfb134229ea41e4eb6194c07b3b.jpg</div>
