Well you can ignore the WORK;
and the PEOPLE
The litany of work done by top photographers in the 90's with M6's and other
M's.
Look at the class picture of Magnum in the late 90's its not Canon EOS's in
there hands its still Leicas just like the decade before that and the decade
before that.
And you'll find that this decade with M9's in their hands.
