But, any Leica M camera can be a "digital camera". Many professional digital photo labs can now scan your 24/36 exposure film at the time of processing up to a 25mb file per neg. So you can have high quality digital files AND negatives. 25mb's produce great 8x10 Leica prints. It's not just the digital cameras getting better and better, the scanners are too.
