[Leica] in to look at R5's out with a IIIf/Summitar

[pdzwig at summaventures.com (Peter Dzwig)]

They *are* pretty. Stephen Gandy talks about them as a work of art on the 
Cameraquest site. I think that they are jewel-like wonders of precision 
engineering; there's a special feeling I get when I hold one. A feeling that I 
don't get with any M, except an MP - and certainly not with the Digilux.

Now use it :-) they're great fun; cheap, can produce great images and of course 
they are Leicas.
