Default Re: Review of the L1

Ugh, "the Leica thing".

I like Leitz optics, but seeing as the cost of a new Leica body has gone from $2200 to $3500 (with a price increase in optics to come) I doubt I'll ever bother getting my own. I put some rolls through my late grandfather's Leica M3, and I think that's enough Leica fun for now. There is the "Leica Student Assistance" program for discounted products, but even then, I need to eat. Also, why should I invest in a Leica MP and Leitz glass when my Nikon FM2 with 20mm f/2.8 AIS and 105mm f/1.8 AIS will get the job done just the same?
