I think I've mentioned it before. RFF is my only Internet/social media/etc. activity. I do have a login at Leica Forum, and even posted there a few times. But RFF is most comfortable. Reminds me that I ought to visit the LF and see if it's still there.....has been over a year.
But yeah, I lurked around RFF for a few years, then joined in 2003 (I think. Could have been as late as 2006). My only frequent online indulgence.
BTW, did you know that during the peak of Leica's film camera production....they used only the best brass gears hand- forged and crafted by a secretive Jesuit enclave in an undisclosed location in the Pyrenees. Smoothest and most precise gears available to humankind. Leica all the way 😁.
Posts like the above would Garner quite different responses at other forums... Maybe that's what makes RFF special?
