I rely on the fact that Leicas and Bessas all look alike. Nobody would buy more than one of the same thing, would they?

Jeff, my number one reason to spend money on camera equipment is "Because I'm worth it". She just laughs and says "Don't be so sure" Also realise that wives all go to the same wive's acadamy where they learn the same responces. So no matter how good a justification we come up with, they will ALWAYS have a quick responce. So just give it up and try to be a bit more sneaky with your purchases. It doesn't work either but sometimes delays the inevitable. ;-) Dave Original Message ----- From: "Jeffery Smith" <jls@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <leica@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, May 02, 2004 12:48 PM Subject: RE: leica USING photographers.... > If my wife is any indication of the norm, there are fewer female Leica > users because of the "YOU SPENT $2,000 ON WHAT??!!!!" factor.
