Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They must be thinking for the collectors market. But then an M6 and a 50 1.4
would be the same or more. Interesting to see how this flys. From the
close-ups looks like they're using up all of the left over "F" shutter speed
dials and releases. Has some nice goodies like the sprit level.
