Least of all get my ass burned for being excited! I realize lots of M6 users are cool with the camera just the way it is. So was I! That was until I was shown how it can be an even better tool / toy / camera. Far more functional for photographers like myself who are "no right eye" folks and have to shoot with the left eye. I read about the Leicavit years ago, but they never seemed to be available and I made do. But just like some of the LUGGERS who get wired over a new lens, they don't get jumped on because they think it's better than sliced bread and we should all have one. This winder, to me being one eyed, has just opened up a whole new world of using the M6 in a far more comfortable manner, hopefully with a greater success of pictures taken. I certainly know I have missed good ones at just the moment the camera was moved from eye to re-cock. Now I don't have to do that! Maybe this will explain my somewhat over abundance of enthusiasm! :) ted
