The reality is that we are so well served by all of the major brands that it is only the nuances that are deciding factors. Canifujikony Corporation will swepp the lot away! Ed

I have pretty much gone the other way. Digital was just a little too much for me and my arthritis is pretty bad especially the right thumb. Had shots in both thumbs but only fixed the left,the right got worse. So I sold all my Nikon equipment and dug out an old Leica M3 and bought a Voightlander 21mm f4 for it ( I had sold all my leitz lenses some time ago and my M6's). Bought some Fuji film and returned to a great feeling. Mostly today it's just snapshots in any case. Have tried a friends M8 and I like it pretty well too and solves the film problem. You don't feel you are carrying anything. If I could walk over 100yds I would think I had done a long hike so wildlife is pretty much out so I'm back to my old favorites ,landscapes and architectural shots. It's satisfying. Getting back to Leicas is a good feeling.
