Oh well, we shall survive. Leica Motor is due by August. :-) An AF Leica SLR is going to come. The Rep. was guessing two years. No AF M camera. No surprise. But a complete overhaul of the M6 will happen. Leica management is getting a shakeup. Accountability seems to be the watchword from the new CEO. Konica IS coming out with an AE M-mount body. And three lenses too. Lots of good stuff, in other words. Welcome back! Looking forward to watching you kick some butts and bring us back to the reality of why we own Leicas - to make pictures! So, is the book almost done? Got lots of B&W (he-man stuff) to print yet? Is Sandy keeping you in line? :-) Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch "The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us." - Calvin and Hobbes
