Humph! This just shows what you know, Mr. Beddoe. Using a Leica
automatically makes one a better photographer, and having an M covered
in black paint makes one an even better photographer.

Truly Outraged in Boston!

My M6 is in a pretty sorry state with external bits falling off and the
superglue stuck to the chrome from when I glued the leather back down
and used too much.  Strangely it takes pictures just as well as it did
when I first bought it.  My lenses are still mint in every way as I wrap
them in cotton wool and tuck them up in bed every night with a lullaby
since they are the means by which light enters my camera and strikes the
film and as such are sacred and wondrous objects.

I hope all the black paint, titanium and other silly variants on the M
camera all fall under Mr Cassidy's bastard file and the people who buy
them realise that this WON'T AFFECT THE QUALITY OF THE PICTURES IN THE
SLIGHTEST AND THAT'S WHAT COUNTS.
