David,

Thank you.

I'm using a Canon EOS 10D and a Leica M4P with 50 f2. This camera was
lend to me by a close friend that is trying to convince me to stop with
the digital sin. He is a photo journalist (as a matter of fact photo
editor of a big newspaper) and uses only Leicas).

My other film gears include Olympus, Nikon and Canon.

It's a temptation to shoot only with the M4P, let me tell you. This
little Leica (how my friend calls it) is fun. 

I don't want to start this discussion all over again, but to not be able
to get a digital M is a deep personal frustration. 

Maybe it's my fault, maybe my senses are not so sharp as other's, but
the Leicas are the only reason I fell sad about the digital transition.
The only reason.

My best regards.

Nelson

Welcome, Nelson!  Nice shot.  (I'm always a sucker for baby photos!)

You'll find it interesting here... a lot of good people and a lot of
good 
information.  Sometimes we squabble, and sometimes we forget we're here
to 
discuss Leicas.  But overall, there's a lot of comradery and knowledge
to 
be found here!

What cameras/lenses are you using?
