So what should we chatter about, Sam, the same things over and over and
over and over and over about a camera that is essentially unchanged
since 1954? I mean it's a wonderful camera, but talking about it
incessantly gets pretty damn boring - at least in the digital world
things are continually evolving and, hopefully, improving. I don't know
about you, but I find photography a hell of a lot more interesting than
gear - especially when the gear discussions keep recycling the same
questions and answers over and over and over; or people ask where to
find a book that will tell them how to perfectly frame images with a
rangefinder. ;-)

If it stops the incessant digital chatter for even a minute, it was well

worth it.
