That's simply incredible. I just returned from an out of town trip. There's a reason only my M came with me. Small. Compact. This was a business trip first and foremost. Photos were a secondary concern. A big, bulky digital SLR wouldn't have made the cut. Of course, I still needed to make sure I had enough film. Turns out that I really only had enough time to break away for photos so that I only shot 1 roll and a few frames into a second one. Film is a real pain taking through airports these days. Not sure it was entirely worth the hassle of hand-checking my film on each part of the trip. I want a digital M the same size as my current one. I'm not sure Leica can market it at a price I'm willing to spend, though. -- Eric http://canid.com/
