Seems to be a lot of attention being given to "powder coating" as a finish 
in other fields. Don't know if it's increased durability, or just cheaper to
produce. But, I understand it can be a DYI project. Anyone tried it?

Coloured cameras: I've seen someone selling repaited old leica's on
ebay.  This person is taking IIIF and IIIc's and refurbishing them in
designer colours--blue, black, red (if memory serves)--complete with new
coloured leathers and glossy paint jobs.  I think he said he's using
model paint.

If any industries soul felt like making some blue or perhaps green (for
the environment) OM1s, I'd love one.  

Like the man on the blue guitar,
I'd take pictures of things
as they are, exactly as
they are

Could be an excellent conversation piece which might be useful for doing
people shoots.
