The two gentlemen from California are not an encouragement to this seller. We all know your state is in the 'pits', but there is hope; the San Andreas (spelling?) fault may happen and you can swim away.

May I assume that you did not have a Visoflex for the IIIf?
You are correct, I did not have a Visoflex; nor wanted one.
The problem with the Leica IIIf was the difficulty loading film in the 'out-dated' system they kept too long.
The lenses were OK, view and range finder poor , but you could expose the film.
My conclusion: LEICA over priced. I found a reason for the high price to the common purchaser in this book on page 19, a list of cameras presented to notable people; H.M. Queen Elizabeth II two cameras.

Before any of you go off on me, I'm NOT trying to start a conflict as to which is better. I'm just curious to find out how many share my experienced with the brand and what particular models they use.
I'm always amused at how vociferous many who shoot "OTHER" brands become when they get even a slight hint that there's a perceived slam against their favorite. Chill, my brothers and sisters. That's not what this is about. ;)

I had a Leica IIIf for several years until my son came home from Vietnam with a Pentax Spotmatic. What a revelation:the Pentax was so superior to the Leica that I immediately bought a Spotmatic; and later a ME super.
Now digital I have an *ist DL, K10D, and the K3; and several lenses.
For Christmas, or was it my birthday on 12-28, I gave myself the Pentax smc DFA 100mm f/2.8 WR Macro lens. Real quality.

I will soon be 94; but I have an OP/TECH USA "BINO/CAM HARNESS" which makes the camera and lens seem much lighter. Mine is the model in webbing.

I just purchased a new camera and I'm looking for the Manfrotto shoulder strap that has the clamps that slide up/down the strap and the opposing clamps that attached to each side of the camera.
All I can seem to find is straps that connect to the camera by the tripod threads.
Anyone have any suggestions on where to a good strong shoulder strap that does not connect to the tripod threads? I have the Nikon D7200.
Thanks,
Connie

There's a huge difference between using CAPS sometimes to EMPHASIZE and using all caps all the time. One is considered emphasizing, the other is considered yelling at everyone. Yelling's not necessary unless one is insecure.
Perhaps we are insecure because some weirdos believe CAPS increase the sound level.

Unable to help with paper problem.
I solved my printer ink problem when I purchased an Epson printer with CIS installed; has 5 refillable 2 oz. bottles outside end of printer. Contact Cobra Ink Service, good company.
