Did you ever have an object that you loved too much?
Well this is mine.
My beloved Leica M4 P, a two-pound workhorse of a camera that is practically my other set of eyes. This camera sees the world exactly the way I see the world.
I just posted her on eBay. It's time to let go.
Word of the Day:

So, selling this camera is your sacrifice on the ocassion of the summer solstice?
Oh my. I remember when you got it. Is there no way you can jam a digital chip on the back and keep shooting? Still, $889 is a pretty good bid for dieing technology (film).
Wow. It hurts ME to see you give that up. Hopefully someone else will love that window on the world as much as you.
She sold for $1,404.00
I'll put that in my future business account. THAT'S what the sacrifice was for.
That is awesome, as sad things go.
