Leica M6 CLA

I am about to send my workhorse, the Leica M6, for a CLA to Fotomechanik Reinhardt in Hannover. The last CLA (clean lube adjust) is almost 8 years ago and i have the feeling that the exposure times are not as accurate as they used to be. The bottom cover is also a little loose, hopefully this can be fixed too.

Apple iPhoto calendar service

I received two calendars today i produced using Apple’s iPhoto service. The quality is truly outstanding, i am more than happy. The Apple calendars are quite expensive (about 18 EURO each) but absolutely worth the money. BTW, at least if you order from Germany the calendars are print in Czech.

Leica Motor M

Saw a low priced Leica Motor in a shop window yesterday and couldn’t resist. Compared to the Leica winder it’s almost inaudible (but still louder than the Hexar). Not sure whether i will keep it or not.
