The Minilux is the most expensive camera I have ever
bought. Because the [expleteve deleted] shutter has
packed up!
I bought my M6 s/h, and it cost me a LOT less than my
EOS 10D - but must be worth at least twice as much
now. Still, I can argue that the 10D is cheap as well
- I've saved enough in film and processing to pay for
it.
