Thought I'd post a few of these... the Leica forces a completely different though process and I never use it track side... too slow. But, I like the "slow" when doing background and atmosphere stuff.

Well you didn't say they had to be from your Leica ;)

Great Images! JT and Thorsten Overgaard have really peaked my interest in one of these. I do miss the connectedness the controls this camera provides and the glass produces some wonderful images.

The problem is I can't find a decent copy that's at a reasonable proce. The ones on Ebay have been going for some pretty steep prices lately.

It's not a Leica, but the Panasonic GF-1 isn't too bad. I've found the autofocus is as quick as a 20D/30D and virtually no shutter lag. You can get a Leica lens adapter, but you lose the AF. I've had mine for about 3 months and it's a great street camera, especially with the 20mm 1.7.
