Hello Paul,
You probably have the best flex combo I can think of,
and I kept mine for it's clean finder alone (can't
seem to sell it cause I know it will work when I pick
it up after 10 or 20 year from now). It has a tactile
feel when I release the shutter; the only other SLR
camera with that feel is my Nikon F2. Unless your
meter has been adjusted for the new 1.5v batteries,
you can use an adapter with Zinc air batteries for
hearing aids. I ordered one from a gentleman in
England that machined them to fit perfectly. Works
like a charm.
Enjoy your rediscovered hobby, and what a camera to
start it off it with...

Subject: [LRflex] New member introduction
Hello fellow LeicaReflex members,
I've just joined the forum as I'm getting back into
photography after a
two-decade absence. After researching Leica M and R
systems, I
decided to buy a Leicaflex SL with a 50mm F2.0 (thank
you to Douglas Herr,
Karen Nakamura and others for their detailed
reviews), and am looking
forward to rediscovering the creative aspects of
picture making. Perhaps
a digital SLR is in the future, if/when Leica comes
out with an R10...
In the meantime, I'm focused on learning how 35mm can
be integrated
with the latest in digital presentation, editing and
storage. I'm sure
this forum will provide a great opportunity to share
information and meet
other Leica photography buffs.
Paul Hadlow
