Most of the time I'm using just K64, but I have a 3rd body loaded with K200 for when I'd rather not miss the photo due to dim light.  One reason I like the SL so much is because it's so inexpensive (for Leica) that I can afford more than one.
 
No I'm not gonna get a 4th body (famous last words) so I can have a spare K200 body!
