In my last comment I was referring primarily to a new Leica. I probably
could do some swapping as I have about 10 or 12 cameras now, but when I
think about it, I don't want to let them go. I think I'll be happy with
what I have. I still like to run some film through most of them at one time
or another. I even get out my Rollei MX once in a while. I've had that one
for 54 years now and it still takes great pictures. I took my Kodak
Medalist II (mod. for 120) out a couple of weeks ago - talk about weird
looks from people!! :) But I do love that camera.
