Despite what Mark likes to misread, my take is pretty simple - if it is at
all reasonably possible to save up for a (used) Leica, by all means, it's
the most gratifying choice. The M-E is "only" $5400 now. And buy Leica lens
used. ZM lens in the focal length and aperture, if available, are quite
decent too.

If I don't have any Leica glass, I may look at X-PRO1 or the like, but why
bother HEY MARK RABINER< READ THIS: when I have a set of Leica Summilux and
28/2 'cron that I use and can rely on?
