[LRflex] Re: Leicaflex meter

Javier:

Oops... my mistake... not quite awake here... to early in the morning!

Should your friends wish an instruction book, it can be downloaded for free=
 in .pdf format by going to

http://www3.telus.net/~telyt  and then clicking on INSTRUCTION BOOKS on the=
 left.  On the next page, under the line "available in .pdf format", they=
 should click on Leicaflex.  Note that the book downloads as two .pdf=
 files.

Hope this helps.

David.
