Thanks to some excellent support by Leica here I managed to get a standard lens for my second hand S2 very quickly. The camera worked perfectly whichever I did my part and I'm very happy to say that we got through about a thousand frames with it. Not a bad start with a camera hat has done about 1500 frames in the first two years of its life. I did find it easy to saturate the 1GB buffer working at a fast rate, something that is impossible to do with the M (the S2 about like the M9 in that regard but with bigger files of course). I was using my M as well which means about another 1,000 frames. Quite extraordinary. Now there will be a looong period of just copying the files into my computer, all 126GB of them! Could not have done it with film! First looks soon. Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman
