Apart from being completely devoted to my precious girl there, I am rather fond of this Leica stuff! On this new M8, the 50 shows another of its talents. Look at the pic again, awesome quality! <http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/93634580> Don't worry about the price tag, once you get a second mortgage to fund this stuff, it tends to hold its value well! What was on my daughter's mind was having fun playing strike a pose, like a next top model. I got five or six poses in 60 secs and about five frames. This is my favourite shot. Not too bad for grabs during a barbecue.

Its a one in a million. Each element in the shot is exactly perfect. And distinctive. The way she's grabbing that tissue. The light. Her choice of glasses, hairstyle and pink dress. But I think its impossible to take a "casual portrait" with a $3,295.00 lens! :) Great fingers! Rabiner markrabiner.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
