Ted:

I just recently became a Leica user (exposed my first frame yesterday) and
am quite excited with my new toy (er tool.) I find it difficult to
understand your excitement about something that we (royal we, if you want to
think that Leica users don't own other equipment) have enjoyed for quite a
while. This is not new technology. Would you expect anything less from one
of the worlds foremost photographic manufacturers then to "get it right?"

May I be so bold to suggest that the next thing the camera might do for you
is to focus itself. Then you could spend more time being critical of
composition and concentrate on timing. M8 maybe?
