Do you want to stay with > film. Oh, I am heavily invested in film. I create my own chemicals, soup my own films, print, mount.. you name it. So, there won't be any digital for quite some time! I had my eye on the M6.. Price is definitely a consideration. Right now I mostly use my 501 c/m. I carry it in my hand, and ever so often I meter and adjust the camera. The F5 was almost only for sports shooting. But I don't shoot sports as much. I got tired of burning 30 rolls of E6 in a day only liking 3 of the entire bunch. So I am looking for a small light camera that I can take with me everywhere.. It's either a Leica, in which case I dump all the Nikon gear, or, I just get an FE2 or some other smaller manual focus Nikon.. Thanks for the suggestions. J -- Justin F.
