Ooh!  Controversial Statement Warning!  I think I'd say the exact 
opposite.  To me, SLRs require you to engage the brain and actively 
think about *making* a photograph.  Rangefinders (and Ms in particular) 
are cameras where you observe the world and take pictures when they 
feel right that appear infront of you.
