To the new member, What are you waiting for? ? There are users here who use 
film, older M's to the latest digital M and R equipment and all are equally 
welcomed. ?Many do not even use Leica's anymore. ?All levels of expertise 
are also represented, and welcomed, no matter what the discussion. ?We have 
only one restriction for topics - No Politics. ?There is a wealth of 
knowledge here and it is given freely.


Welcome to our group and I/we hope you jump in soon with your 
questions/comments and photos.?


Cheers,
Gene? -------------- Original message from Brian Reid
