This is a tough one. I agree it should go to someone who is not already
shooting Leica, but how many on the list are in that category? (I would
count "Leica" as LTM, M or R, but not the P&S,etc)

Ideas, in no particular order:

B&W prints only (makes the field more level, it's a B&W camera ;), and
might make judging a bit easier)

(ok, it's late and my idea(s) consisted of one ;) let someone else take
a stab at it.

(would be great if the winner got another Leica if this one came back
for another contest!)

Bests,
Dennis
