>>> 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.

Consequently, I have enjoyed the Fuji offerings and will probably remain in that camp. 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?
