I had me one of them GSW690s, the III model. Texas because of the size, Leica
because somehow Fuji managed to build some lenses for those cameras that
perform spectacularly. I miss mine sometimes, but I don't miss the film
hassles, scanning woes and, of course, forgetting to take the lens cap off, as
well as occasionally forgetting to focus. <g>
