Perhaps we should offer a Forum alibi service...

 

"I couldn't have bought it last week, Darling - I was out with XXXXXXXXXX from the Leica Forum."

 

"No, Darling, I haven't bought it, I borrowed it indefinitely from YYYYYYYYY from the Leica Forum."

 

etc... :D

 

Regards,

 

Bill

I will not stress too much that it is used as it is like new and still holds one year Leica guarantee.

 

But I am very sure that I did better than Spitzer who wasted more money for few hours fun only.:)

Sire, ye are a wise and discerning man. A used M7 beats a used whore any day. :D

Right, Andy. But I do not like tyrannies of any kind. And marriage can be just that. Takes a rare woman to let a guy breathe, and vice versa.

 

Rare - and wise.

 

And one who wants to stay married (and vice versa). ;)

Do what I did. Just use the camera like it has always been there and when she finally notices (wives are notorious for not noticing camera equipment) just tell her "oh, I've had that for quite a while."

By the time she asks, you will not be lying. Since you already had the M8, and the new one looks very close, it will probably work.

It did for me.;)

If your wife is not into Leica too much, she won't notice a difference between your M8 and your M7. Just use it! My girlfriend is not aware of differences between Barnack O series (black) and Leica III (silver) or Leica MP (silver) and Leica M4 (black). Girls care about other things, not our cameras. Of course, new lenses are even easier to integrate.

This story has come to a happy end regarding my wife. But now I fear that the lower class member of our family might lay claim to my gear.

 

Are there any qualified lawyers around in case I might face a lawsuit?;)
