It really does not have that solid mechanical feel ( think M6 or M3) ... which is not surprising as it is pretty electronic, and little ( of practical use) mechanical properties. The VF, even though it is both small and under magnified, still gives that Leica look and feel... But the rest... leaves me lacking..... I don't think ", this is a marvelous... etc..." applies in my thinking.... Back to the first part of my first sentence..... Frank Filippone Red735i at earthlink.net I wonder if people still have that wonderment of "gee, this is a marvelous piece of engineering" when they are using their M9 or M8.
