Fake woodgrain  ???
Now all you need is a burnt orange strap to go with it and you'll have the complete 70's look to go with it  :P

How about a companion camera in harvest yellow  ;)

Actually, the woodgrain would go fine with the basement renovation I have planned for this summer!
I'm going for the Retro High Tech Urban Cottage look (trust me, it is going to be s.w.e.e.t.!)

Aw man- I would give my eye teeth for a nice Pen F. I borrowed one a while back and loved it. That lens cap with the big gothic F makes me go all tingly. I have a problem...

I will freely admit to being a fuddy-duddy. I also got out of the wrong side of bed this morning.

Chrome and black leather are my favourite colour scheme

.......and at the other end of the scale is a Leica M2 in a very weird colour scheme and looking kinda distressed:

I've seen and held this camera and I'm not sure whether it's an "official" Leica paint job but it certainly looks like the previous owner didn't exactly keep it in a Luigi case.

It's an original Leica paintjob. Leica offered their cameras in green for military camouflage. Now I still wonder what soldier would go around with a green leica around his neck?

Saw the camera, seems to me they didn't strip the chrome off and go down to brass but that's a nice color might do that to my iic

I'm not so keen on the discopet, but I very much like the wood effect on the black pen - classy.
