Hmm, two photographic loves? . . . In my case, the Leica started as a 
girlfriend/mistresss to liven up a love that had gone cold. I'd say now she's 
my wife and the Nikon just does the laundry, cleans the house, takes out the 
garbage and cooks some of the meals. The Nikon's sure nice to have around, 
essential even, but it's just not the same . . .
