In Australia, you are one of the most elegant and dominant sportspersons of the last 20 years. As for selling, you will of course regret it, but your ideas are sound. I used the M6 and its mid range lenes with a Viso 3 and 65 for 2 years, ignoring my SLR, and like you suggest, I never really missed the later, but I've strayed into the R8 and the 100 macro, and though I love the 65 [it is a fantastic lens], the 100 macro is just something else. It has a quality of its own, and my flower photos have never looked any sharper or brighter. Every dog has its day, and though the M6 and Viso can make an awesome combination, the SLR will have some advantages, and sentiment should play a role for those of us lucky enough to enjoy it ;-) Cheers Alastair Firkin http://users.netconnect.com.au/~firkin/AGFhmpg.html
