Digital is a good thing. Glad to see Leica finally making the shift to the new world. You should try it Mark, digital is a lot of fun. And no stinky chemicals to worry about.

Oh, Peter, I have tried digital time and again and have utterly failed at it. I cannot understand the first thing about Photoshop. I do scan negatives and process those in Irfanview, but anything more complex is simply beyond my ken.

And I am not as wealthy as you are. At the least, to match what I already own in film, I would have to spend about $12,000 or $15,000 and would have to upgrade every two or three years to the tune of another $5,000. My normal monthly income is a VA disability check of $120. Do the math! It does not work.
