Hi Doc,
Will begin paying a bit more attention to the LEG as I have an M8.2 enroute
from Dale Photo and Optical in Hollywood, FL. I tried to enter the digital
photo world with a Nikon D700 and the Nikkor 24-70 recently. The duo was
marvelous, but it just wasn't my style, particularly nowadays. Catching up with
Prof. Grant as I am, I'm finding that the smaller and lighter kit is desirable,
and once infected with the Teutonic Flu, it's hard to shake!
So, the Nikon gear was traded and now I'll be reverting to my 35 Lux, 50 Cron
and 90 Elmarit. The 35 Lux is headed to Leica, NJ for coding and calibrating
(understand that it will require coding more than the others which may not need
it at all). These and my M6 will do for my walkin' around happy snaps, just
fine. If I can't do without the latest and greatest in a year or so, then I'll
add the current darling of the DSLRS at that time or later. No, it will not be
an S2! :-) Its anticipated price makes my eyes water.
Keep posting those pics, men. They're very inspiring!
Roger
