Best 35mm Camera. Ever.

Agreed. I sold mine to get the 2nd best 35mm camera ever-- Leica M6. Oh well, second is nice too but MAN I miss the Hexar.
 
i'll bet 99% of forum members go their entire photographic lives without mounting a 1000mm anything on anything.

as to the question, ive only heard great things about the hexar. if its a better film version of my much loved x100, it has to be one of the very best. i'm actually afraid to buy one in that it would force me to supplant all my other cameras and legacy lenses the way my x100 did with my digital gear!
 
Horses for courses so for RF it has to be a Leica M6 and for manual focus SLR OM-1 or F2 and for AF I guess the F6 but there is some lush lenses for Konicas, Fujis and Contax cameras. There are so many wonderful manual focus cameras just begging to be used and enjoyed, a lot are such bargains now it seems a shame to just have one or two.
 
I'd be tempted to say the F100 (though I guess the F6 is about the same size/weight as a F100 but improved?) for pure versatility and generally just working. $250 from KEH is a crazy deal for such a good camera.

The Hexar AF is lovely, but I'd like it even better with some info in the viewfinder and a faster top speed.
