I would use a faster film like 400UC from Kodak which works very nice and
the grain is hardly noticeable, almost like a asa 100 film.  I use this all
the time and it works very nice without flash.

I want to take snapshots of my little kids.  I only use leica (almost all
M).  For other purposes I will shoot slow color film (usually slides)
outside or bw indoors.  I never use flash (just posted about SF20).  But
now
I am constantly in need of a quick pic - my baby is doing something and I
just want to take a damn picture!  As the pic will also be for family and
so
on (not art directors) I want this sort of thing to be in color.  So what
do
I do?  Put a flash on my M6?  Use bw and say to hell with it?   Or what
about getting something like a T3 p/s?  Would I have more pictures?  I got
relatives using throw aways cause they want pictures!  Or maybe I should
get
a good digital?  That makes the most sense as I can instantly e-mail them
and also have good enough quality for smaller prints.  Of course I will
still take 'real' pics with my leica stuff.....

Thanks..
