[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I would like to find out if *I* can see that "Leica Look" and whether it suits me. I've read plenty of opinions of others, both here and on Compuserve, but I know that no one can make this determination but me. So, I'd like advice on a "cheap" used SLR camera and lens from Leica - -that will show off the Leica look at its best-. I've been using Nikon for years so it will have to be better than that. I tend to like 50mm lenses a lot, so that would be preferred, but alternatives considered. The point about "cheap" isn't that I can't afford Leica, I can (it's still a stretch). Rather, this is an experiment, and I would like to be able to get in cheaply and get out with most of my money if I decide Leica is not for me. On the other hand, if I did decide to stay with Leica, I would want this camera to be a reasonable backup body. TIA, Dave
