Subject: [Leica] the best M body ...

Although it isn't very fashionable on this forum to claim that Leica's new 
products are worthy, I believe, w/o a doubt, that the best M are the current 
M7 or MP.  The same is true for their lenses in my opinion; newer ones are 
better.

It's funny.  The Leica is in it's death throes, prices are rising, sales
are falling (I don't seem to remember discussing that in Economics 101),
suppliers of film are dwindling, and people are still concerned with
rangefinder flair and mechanical smoothness and how sad it is that the
engravings aren't as nice as they were 50 years ago.
