Subject: [Leica] Shocking: MM images do not look like film!

For some reasons, when I heard about the Leica MM, for no logical reasons
at all, I was imagining that the images would look like Tri-X, or other
great B&W film, just shot in ISO 100,000 or whatever.

Well, no, they look like digital images converted to B&W:

Yes, I know one can convert and process and plug-in to make anything looks
like any old film, but it just jolted me a little on how stupid my
assumption was.
