I have to agree with you Howard, and I am loving my new D4 more with every 
use.  I guess I will have to start buying Leitax adapters for when the DMR 
croaks. ;)

Cheers,
Gene

Hi Luggers,
Just back from a two week road trip and catching up on the latest Leica news.
>From a quick scan of the Leica literature on line and a snap review of 
>Leica Camera Forum
I can't find any info whether auto aperture will be available with the R > M 
Adapter on the
Leica M. If that function is not available I'll stick with my recently 
acquired Nikon
D800E and the leitax adapted bayonets on my R lenses. Pictures from that 
combo will follow in a few days.
Cheers
Howard (back in Vancouver after about 3,000kms in the old X3)
