This is the first new camera I have ever owned in 40 years of photography; its arrival will probably cause my Leica IIIf to join my Argus C3 on the display shelf. I want to thank all of you for this; I've hardly ever felt this appreciated. And I'm going to say a more wordless "thank you" by implementing a new feature of the mailing lists that I've been mulling over; I will probably have it working by the first of the year and I promise you'll like it a lot. Special thanks to Jim Brick and Marc Small for driving this effort; you guys are fantastic. Brian Reid system operator for the Leica and Rollei lists
