Re: [Leica] Is there a Nikon list?

Robert, so Nikon is out, but Canon is ok?  Which other ones will be ok?  How
about the Holga 
Sorry, couldn't resist given the two posts so close together. :->

I don't mean to offend anybody in particular, but can we keep the Nikon topics
on a Nikon list.  I don't mind the occassional Nikon question, but can the
replies be sent to the original poster rather than the whole list. I myself
not coming to the Leica R or M via Nikon, have very little interest in this
stuff.  I assume there are others like myself on the list.

<< I had an Eos Elan IIe system before, (my Wife uses it now),  but did not
have any of their exotic lenses.  I would gladly compare the EOS to the Leica,
but nobody would be interested.  I just get the feeling that the Nikon users
are as fanatical about their system as the Leica users.  I was really not that
excited about my EOS though.  When I got an R camera and a few reasonably fast
prime lenses, I wondered why I was using an EOS with F4-5.6 lenses.  If I got
the equivalent fast primes for the Canon, they would have cost more than the
ones I bought used for the Leica.  At one point, I wanted to do some Nature
and sport photography and decided to get a 400 2.8.  I would have been happy
with the EOS 400, but the Leica was cheaper than the Canon 400, if I factored
in buying a EOS 1N.  I stayed with the Leica and I am glad because I like the
lenses I have.
