Want to shoot 2 different film stocks in the same situation? Much as I love Tom's rapidwinders (and Tom, for that matter), my guess would be that if you think about your needs, you'll go for another body right now. (also, consider M2/m4-2/m4-p as well as M3). Desire and lust for ARW's, however, have little to do with needs. :=) have good light, Alistair - -----Original Message----- From: Xavier Logean [mailto:xavier.logean@epfl.ch] Sent: Thursday, September 02, 1999 9:55 AM To: LUG Subject: [Leica] M3 or rapidwinder Hi, I have a M6 + 35 1.4 asph + 50 2.8 + 90 2.8 + skopar 25 4 and I'm considering getting a rapidwinder for the M6 or buying a M3 (for a little more $). I am using 65% 35mm, 20% 50mm, and the other lenses equally. This is in my mind for a while and I don't know what to do. A second body would be nice but I would probably need to buy a meter for the M3 ... As I heard the rapidwinder is really nice ... Any advises ? Xavier.
