I tended always to prefer my 6x7 for landscape work (never could get the view-camera into my blood). After having a look at Brian Bowers' books, though, I was impressed with the quality he achieves with landscapes using the Leica M, so I have tried it and like it very much and even for 24x20 Ilfochromes from K25 or Velvia. Still, the lack of macro capability (I'm not a Visoflex owner) and the inability to accurately use split ND filters puts an SLR ahead in that respect.
