Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of the arguments that use to erupt over on RFF about why there are 7 or 8 sub-forums devoted entirely to Leicas... as if there were no other RFs ever manufactured. It seemed that a week wouldn't go by when someone wouldn't start a thread called something like "why don't we call this the 'We Love Leica and the Rest of You Can Pound Sand Forum'?" Now those were the good old days... after a few days those were threads worthy of a few beers.

I welcome comments on any picture I post... Thanks.

Second only to the "Which 35mm lens for my M_ (fill in the blank)" & "Which version of the 35mm Summicron is the best?"

That's why I chose the stealth model in all black with a touch of white.

Everyone but pagans and heritics knows it is the IV pre-ASPH......

Says you. The Pagan & Heretic view says it's not even a Leitz lens. Choice is what makes the world go round.
