Haah! I actually thought they were from the S2 and hence a very exclusive
sub-set even rarer than the M (Typ 240). However I very carefully put you
in the 'not specified' column lest I be accused of bias. I did put
Jayanand's in the Nikon column and Ric's in the Leica column though.

The 'not specified' column is interesting. I wonder how many just want to
make a statement that the equipment doesn't matter and how many just take
it as read that we shoot with Leica ;-)

Two startling developments that I noticed were that Lluis submitted one in
Colour and so were both of Ted's!  ;-) ;-)


Cheers
