<< At the end of the day, is'nt the Leica M (0,72) really usefull
 only with 35 & 50 lenses?
 Maybe all the other lenses are a compromise! >>
That's essentially my feeling although I have a 135 f4 in the bag just in
case. It is light gets the picture. I also have a fairly complete R system
which I use probably more. I have sold systems in the past because I thought I
would not use them enough to warrant tying up the money. I was always sorry.
Whenever I have those thoughts now I remember my previous experiences. Finally
I am learning from history.
Also, I take most of my pictures with a 35 or 50 anyway, so the M travels with
me all the time.
