Hi Jim,
I had one which I loved - Jean-Michel may still be using it btw
The form factor and the rendition were what I wanted. The XT-1 I'm now using is more like the first OM reflexes ;-)
Keep the good pictures coming dear Jim

> At 86, I'm probably a generation ahead of most LUGGERS, except for Dr. Ted, Larry and Herb. I bought my first Leica in 1952, before the M existed, and I've never owned an M or R. I started with a used Leica III, from 1935, which had been converted by the factory to a IIIa. That was my standard for a small camera. As my small contribution to an OM list discussion, I posted this image, made this morning.

While I have mentally compared the Fuji X-E1 and the Leica IIIf, I had not put them side by side until today. Not too different, wouldn't you say?
