"Not on yer life said I!" :-) And threw the shade away. Then folks started to copy me! ;-) ;-) True story about the pin and cost! And it still isn't going to happen! :-) cheers, Dr. ted ----- Original Message ----- From: <grduprey at mchsi.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2012 12:14 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] 2 More Fair BW > In my case I find it too hard to put it on in the reverse position, so > just keep it on in the correct position. ;) > > Gene > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jim Nichols" <jhnichols at lighttube.net> > To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> > Sent: Monday, October 1, 2012 6:50:11 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central > Subject: Re: [Leica] 2 More Fair BW > > If I may intrude on this discourse, I failed to note the reversed hood, > but > could not for the life of me figure out what she was framing in the > finder. > Unless she has a cleavage fetish. > > On my Oly zoom, the hood can be installed while reversed, but is difficult > to remove from that position.
