I attacked the Fuji X Pro or not being on par with an M. That a cheap plastic compact plastic point and shoot which can have Leica glass put on it be put on the same level as a Leica M. and that many of these cameras are 1.5 or 2x crop or more. And I was confusing the Sony mirrorless just out thing with the Fuji. Does the fact that the Fuji X Pro is also a cropped camera means I'm also attacking a six year old long out of production Leica M8? I think one can applaud one camera for having a larger sensor than another or the reverse and not have it have anything to do with a six year old Leica M8. I assure you a Leica M8 is the furthest thing from my mind. -- Mark Rabiner http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/springdays/ > From: Tina Manley <images at comporium.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2012 20:50:31 -0400 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Fwd: 60mm Macro on Fuji X Pro 1 > > Still have my 2 M8s and still use them.
