Let me think about this. Getting a manual lens focused is a pain too, with only a left hand. How about the mouth-operated cable release? I see them on the 'bay occassionally.

I am now trying to figure out how to operate my leicas with only my left hand. yes i am right handed and this is going to be hell. ;-) i am going to have to figure out how to avoid camera withdrawell. i realize using a tripod with an M is sacrillege, but maybe this is an allowable transgression. i will have the cast on for the next 10 weeks. of course anna and my wife are smiling at their good fortune of not having me with the m in my hand all the time now. any suggestions on how to do this without committing all the M transgressions? got home from the hospital this afternoon, and the M8 is calling me - oh the shame of it all. gene _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
