He doubts other companies will make a dedicated B&W camera and if they do he implied it wouldn't be a range finder. Let me respond: I've thought about all that and would agree. Like Lew, I am a street shooter and for that a range finder is prima. Es gibt nichts Besseres. SLR's are too slow, too clumsy.? In regards to the scanner dying, I'll wait until that occurs. Why rush a replacement? By then, the M9-M ?will be replaced by who knows what. BTW, isn't it strange that while computers get better and better, the cost doesn't rise whereas as Leicas improve, their costs skyrocket. I can't help thinking that Leica Corporate knows a cash cow when they see one. Cheers--Dougals
