For years you've selected one or the other for a job for the system's features and suitability, or when shooting for fun, whichever one you've felt like using. The output has not been an issue. Getting prints for the relys from slides without loss of quality has always been a hassle. Putting up with what labs do to your negs and how they interpret them has always been a pain. Now you have a digital R back. Which camera do you choose when you want to quickly email pics of the kids birthdays to their grandparents? Which camera do you choose for pics of your new car to add to your website, or shots of the family holiday? When you're asked to add the kid that turned up late to the team photo you took earlier in the day? So, when the tax return arrives and a new Leica lens is on your mind, which system are you going to augment? "Hmm? Haven't used the M6s for ages. Can't get Kodachrome! I'll buy that new APO-Summilux 1.4/80 ASPH R, the one DLUGers have been raving about, the one that flipped Erwin's lid, right orf. A 1.4/116 - how good is that?!" Goodbye M system.
