[Leica] Decision Time: slides vs. digital vs. B&W

[richard-lists at imagecraft.com (Richard)]

Kids performances starting tonight. There are 4 performances in 3 days so I 
can recover if I "screw up." They will be in very colorful costumes are 
makeup, but nevertheless I am going to use Tri X on one of the Leica to 
capture the, well, B&W pictures. For the color shots, I have a choice of 
either putting Provia 400F in the other Leica (the test shots from the 
rehearals indicate that 400 is fast enough for ~F2.8 shots) or take the 
Epson R-D1. I am primarily shooting 75mm FOV so the R-D1 would be fine with 
a 50mm lens. I am leaning toward the slides only because I like the Leica 
better than the R-D1. Suggestions?
