Ted - no bashing  but I think that there are folks on the list who adore M 
cameras when they use a rangefinder but look elsewhere for their SLR 
needs.  Many on the list use Canon or Nikon for their SLR needs so I 
suspect this is the nidus for this discussion.  OT defnitely but 
inappropriate OT - probably not.

Adore M's
Nikon F100 for SLR use
