I am on the digest and consequently slow to respond. When I got today's 
digest and I looked at the number of responses titled "D800E pixel - peepers"
my heart sank. I was feeling a little playful in my response to A. Lal and 
was afraid that I might have started some kind of storm. Having read the 
digest I am pleased to see that everyone behaved in a gentlemanly fashion.
Everyone will make their own decision about whether the new Leica M will 
provide an adequate platform for orphaned R lenses but as the LUG knows I 
have already decided and moved on to Nikon, first the D700 and now the 
D800E, so that my rebayoneted R lenses live to take pictures another day! 
The D700 was great and the D800E seems equally competent with 3 times the 
pixels - for those of us who do peep and dream of making Jeff Wall size 
enlargements! 
Cheers
