And who wouldn't want a freeeeeeeee Leica color camera? Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net Frank, Thanks for those links. The David Farkas article in particular compares the 246 to the 240 converted to B&W. He finds the 240 provides B&W results that are close to the 246 at low ISO?s and only starts to fall behind the 246 at the highest ISO?s. That is just what I was looking for, and it makes me think that I will get a 240.
