Like if I were shooting the Olympics or pro. hockey or football. Those assignments were nearly all R cameras. But 99.9 % of the time I'd still have an M body of some kind hanging around my neck! Just in case! Whatever that "in case maybe?" Usually with a 35mm lens. ted > -------------------- > Mark William Rabiner > > > >> From: Ted Grant <tedgrant at shaw.ca> >> Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> >> Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2011 15:22:59 -0700 >> To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> >> Subject: Re: [Leica] Another R option (now M9) >> >> Gee I never had any of the thoughts about where and when I'd use my M >> cameras as they were all I had. >> >> Besides the much preferred camera for all purposes.
