My favorite is whichever one I'm holding at the time. They all will take pics that match my own limits as a photographer. One in particular that I like is a beat-up Leica IIIc that had such a dim rangefinder when I got it that it was unusable except for scale focusing. I sent it to a fellow in the Ukraine and he fixed it using Zorki parts and it now has the brightest RF of the bunch. Cost of the repair was $25 and the shipping cost was the same, $25. Long live the LTM's, and best regards, ------ Paul Connet In a message dated 9/22/2004 9:52:08 AM Pacific Daylight Time, gregj.lorenzo@shaw.ca writes: Who still uses their LTM camera? And which camera or cameras, lens or lenses do you like to use? I use my IIIG with modern formula 50 Summicron primarily for street photography. Regards, Greg
