I look at every photo posted to this list, but would find it almost 
impossible to respond about the merits or demerits of each one. I do have 
another life!

However, I do enjoy many of the photos posted by all of you and am only 
irked by the minority.

I have two Leicas - an M3 and a 111c, but find it awkward to use film 
cameras at present due to my wife's illness. I fully intend getting a 
digital Leica (M9 most likely) secondhand in due course, but my next 
purchase will be the X-100s when it arrives in Ireland. This camera seems an 
ideal instrument for a street shooter who doesn't do flowers, pets, etc., 
but just likes to focus on people.

I'd be surprised if anybody on this list doesn't have at least something 
(lens or camera) Leica.....
