Fernando,
Sell 4 Yashicas and 3 of your Canons and get yourself a proper Leica, not a 
surrogate Russian copy. The difference is in the tactile sensations, 
without that you'll not appreciate what its all about.

thanks. I think you're right. I already entered (sort of) in the world of
rangefinders (with non-interchangeble lenses). I have 5 Yashicas and
4 Canons. I love the Canonet GIII QL17, I carry it always with me,
and the lens does allow me to take some very good looking pictures.

maybe I'll buy a Russian copy... where you referring to a Canon with
M mount? does that exist? or is it screw mount?


best regards,
