[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I've gone back and forth, Kyle, in assessment of your Digilux posts: sometimes I believe you genuinely like the camera; sometimes I think you're piling-on in making fun of the 'first and least among 'em'(digital, that is); other times I wonder if it's ironic dissing of The Great Name -- like flogging the Summitar. Maybe it's 'Look, Ma: no hands! (I can make good photographs even with this sow.) Or self-congratulatory for all of us: are not we Leica users unassailably right? Even our most dismissed camera still can produce superior images. So, I will continue to be uncertain how to read you, I expect. But absolutely certain to enjoy each contribution. I hope you will keep them coming --- they're very good and great fun. I hope others will be inspired to submit work done with older-to-ancient Leicas. Except in our Walter Mitty dreams, we're not all shooting M-9s or S2s. ??

While many "weekend shooters" rely on crutches like multi-megapixels, zoom and interchangeable lenses, the Ur Digilux is for the camera purest who wants as little as possible between themselves, and art.
