Absolutely! Good one, Rand E.! I agree -- this is an important topic,
with solid OM content, and it hasn't been adequately covered on this list.
Most important, it continues -- fittingly, one might quip, the list's
current all consuming fascination with OM leather... :-) :-)
The above table is a great start, however I would like to add a few
more categories to consider (no, not whips and handcuffs, you perv's):
(a) connection to camera: tripod screw or straplets around lugs?
(b) real leather or leatherette?
(c) type and color of lining.
Soooo, who will volunteer to compile the data? I'm riveted to my
computer monitor, quivering in anticipation for the final results.
:-)
Cheers,
/Gary Schloss.
