My Camera Histoire: Hold That Drool

I was on a flight back from Paris and saw what would be my first Minox/Leica camera—a 4mp DCC Leica M3. It was in the duty free section of the Air France magazine. I wanted it but could not purchase it at that moment. When I got home, I checked with B&H Photo and found it there and purchased it.

Finally, I had my own Minox and Leica M3 all rolled into one! I was so excited about this new camera. I took it everywhere with me. I purchased a small sack with a zip-tight lock on a string (made by Pelican) and then I could attach it to my belt loop and take it wherever I went. I have to admit, I spent most of my time testing the performance of the camera rather than having fun with it but I did take a few casual photos with it which I'll show you in a separate post.
