[Leica] So long Rodinal. I'm going to miss you.

[bruce at ralgo.nl (bruce)]

Then Dave, you have two option. Buy another M or Bessa [with the L  
body for the 21 (you don't use the viewfinder anyway)] ........... or  
just shot colour or b&w.

In terms of digicams, you have now seen what the Oly.330 can do; it's  
just grab that or wait for the E1 successor ................ together  
with the 7-14mm lens (14-28) which should give you enough wide  
coverage and apparently, superb optics. You could add the 11-22, of  
course.

Pensive week-end,
B.
