Subject: [Leica] Just got a CL

Hi All,
Just picked up a nice black (EX- cond) Leica CL at the Puyallup camera show
in WA.  Seems to work perfectly at all speeds and the meter seems accurate.
I'm looking forward to running some test rolls through it tomorrow.  It has
the Minolta Rokkor 40mm F2 rather than the Leica lens, which didn't bother
me since I plan to use this as a shooter to accompany me on business trips
(have taken an M6 before, but am always paranoid about leaving it in hotel
room or at our show booths.  I believe the Rokkor and Leica 40mm are
identical and even built on the same assembly line, right?

Best of all...  Got this little guy with an original leather case for only
$350!
