I was attracted by, and remain attracted by, the small size - great image result I get from my Leicas. If and when I get into digital I'm still going to want to use the smallest camera thats going to produce the best image quality for its size. It may or may not be an M8 but it will most likely be a Leica. In the meantime, I'll continue to happily use my Leica and Rollei film cameras. Regards, Greg
