After selling my M6, MP and M8.2 about a year ago and only shooting my Nikon D3, I bought a M6 Wetzler Classic today with a 40mm Summicron lens and an Epson V700 scanner. I just couldn't stay away. I missed shooting film. I missed the size of the Classic M cameras. I missed the rangefinder. I missed it all. When I opened the box and pulled out the M6 it was like coming home. What a great tool. I can't wait to get out and shoot it now.
 
I am already looking for some additional space at my offices for a darkroom. I got my first roll of negatives back and I am really pleased with the scans. I could not be happier.
 
Similar experience last year. Had sold the last of my film bodies only to miss a film M badly enough I ended up buying one.

It's too much fun shooting film with an M, it just is.

Icarus, welcome to RFF, by the way.

Good choice. I also use the V700 for 35mm. Cant complain.
