{If if does need to get sent in, any idea what that might cost?}

 

If you've got to ask, you probably can't afford it.

{How about arranging a get together?}

 

All depends mate. You a City fan or United?

Not much of interest for these blokes. He used Nikons mostly. And only talked about them if he had to.

{you're thinking about the Leica because while you like the "toyotas" you wouldn't mind moving up to the mercedes}

 

Heh. A '54 Mercedes.

I think you should keep Lob and delete Hare. Bob's less of a wanker.

You've got a willy of a problem there mate. I'll be right with you just as soon as I'm solving hunger and world peace.

Or you could just keep on useing your bloody pristine CL, eh "Yves"?

Possible reasons...here you go...</p>

 

1. Millions of hits from potential purchasers of the DMR burnt out his server. </p>

 

2. He's taken his site off line as a punishment for those who've called his omnicience into question. </p>

 

3. His neighbour came by this morning with Leica's cheque that'd been misdelivered by the postman and he's busy re-writing the DMR review.</p>

 

4. His server's crashed, he knows as much about computers as he does about digital, and his 10 year old nephew is off on holiday.

{they belong very much to the romantic past i.e. before the globally connected world.}

 

Well now that's an astute observation isn't it? That's when they were shot. What's of paramount importance is, he used a Leica.

Quite a few here using their cameras naked I wager.

Transmitted by body fluids.

That was a rather short break wasn't it now?

{ Does anyone know where i could find a new or good condition leica 50mm f2 summicron that is not overpriced?}

 

Yeh but I ain't tellin.

Ah yes, the world revolves round the US. Pity us poor fools who muddle by elsewhere eh.

{I'm new here, I used M6's for nine years and recently sold up due to disability.}{I thought my dented M6 and 35 f1.4 was worth about ?300 and it sold on ebay for ?871, and my second one that currently is missing a viewfinder frame lever}

 

Heh. Thought for a bit you meant your disability not the M6es, my mistake.

More nails than needed. It's that Teutonic overbuild-everything ethic.

Toy. Honest bloke. Like that, I do.

Time to find a new hero eh mates?

Sounds a bit as if EP might've been recently cut out of Leica's budget. If not, he'll likely be once they've got a look at his thrashing of the DMR.

Hey mate, you've placed the same question on three different bloody Leica forums. Do you really need other people to tell you what bloody film to use, or are you just looking for commiseration over the fact you're being shuttled off to Poland?

0,1674612 milliseconds. I've a cracking good clock in my loo.

There's one on Sony Beta, VHS won't be available until Photokina 2006, and the CD is delayed indefinitely because the technology is not up to Leica's high standards.

{ A friend who is a very competent photographer has just telephoned to say he is giving up digital and reverting to film. }

 

Good thing he isn't of a mind to give up the telephone and revert to carrier pigeons. Heard they're aldready extinct. Film's got a bit to go.
