Kyle... I just gotta' ask. If you were going out with a 28mm lens, why didn't you just use your M6 body? You know, ALL cameras have shortcomings. Because the M3 wasn't designed for use with a 28mm lens as a primary design parameter, doesn't make it a piece of junk. <shrug> You were just trying to fit a round peg in a square hole, that's all. But I agree, if the '3 frustrates you, by all means, sell it to someone who wants it (they really are great cameras in many ways). Bob Kramer Atlanta, GA
