Steve,
30,000 frames per film sounds like a nice machine ;-).
Jokes aside, I think I was correct: I save per film 80 cents. This makes 3,000
Films, i.e. 117,000 frames to save the $2400 for the next Leica. Since this is
approximately the price for a new Leica and my M6 is going to last that long I
think I actually get it for free.

I will hurry to tell my camera dealer to give me a second body!
