And in my case ? high ISO is not my only concern.
The M is delivers gorgeous files at 1600 ASA
Better than any film I ever used at 400.

I considered the Sony offerings.
I considered the Fuji offerings.
I considered all of them.

The M "delivers"
maximum possible image quality,
corner to corner,
color fidelity,
high resolution,
fine detail,
for every R and M lens I own
(a total of 17)
from 15 mm to 560 mm
