pictures from new monochrome type 246 seem too clean ( it may be better for some people ) nevertheless I enjoy to see some grain ( fine grain ) in the picture

Yes, I feel this way too about the original Monochrom. After three years of ownership I've gone from huge enthusiasm to being increasingly ambivalent and find myself using it largely for convenience (or when ISO 400 film isn't going to be anything like fast enough). Still, it's nice to have the choice and sometimes the Monochrom just seems right for a quick grab shot to catch a moment.

 
Beautiful thing about having clean files you can always degrade them. I look at the MM and now the new MM as like shooting with a very small camera and getting med format slow film results even at high ISOs with the MMs. But in my opinion if you like the look of film better shoot film. I like the look of the files coming from the MM and the new MM and to me that is a plus. A different type of look. I love film and I love digital. They are different and it shouldn't be either or. Just like color and B&W. It's nice to have a lot of choices. In my opinion what matters is what one does with the tools.
