I'm a young pup. One of those damned whipper snappers.. cept I like film so maybe that makes me old. Or maybe it just makes me young and stuck up! Headin to Vancouver for 2 weeks in a couple of days, but I'll give you a note when I get back. Grab a coffee or whatever young pups and old farts do these days.

If you felt more comfortable, I could stand on your lawn and you could tell me to get the hell off of it! 😀

i have no grass, er, lawn.

Joe, sorry to hear you are selling the Hexar AF...that is one of my favorites, but it is often confused for a point and shoot because it acts like one in many ways. But the fact remains that it is a rather large camera, just about the same size as an M with a 35/2, so it is not really a pocket camera.

Hmmm, I don't have an elmar...

But you still have the collapsible Summicron!

Actually, there's an Elmar 2.8 in the classifieds, right now. Good price too.

I saw Chris. I am broke until September, I have a couple vacations coming and I am waiting for an 85/2 Nikkor. Oh, and yes, I do have the collapsible Cron 😉. I like that one.

joe, one comparison I've wondered between the ZI and M3 that you didn't cover.. the viewfinder.. is the ZI actually better than the M3? which is easier/quicker to focus in lower light?

 

[jmilkins]

Joe is Ex-Hex eh?

Mind you, a small digicam is useful - it allows one to to post quickly to the camera and coffee thread when a new RF arrives...😉

Oh, the humanity!
After the GTA members pitched in to fly you out here for the next GTA meeting, to get a shot of you, Frank, Bill, Victor, Jan, Dave, Peter, Gene, and me with our M's......what are you going to do, show up with a burgundy lizard skinned Coolpix?
Now I have to cancel those 1st class plane tickets, damn shame.....
