thank you very much Gerry, very kind!

I am a bit of a lens junky and own quite a few. At my flickr I have albums set up one each for a particular lens, linked in my sig

Wide angles perform particularily well on the GXR M, onather with the 15mm Heliar:

thank you very much Andy, good to see you at this great place, happy to be here!
thank you Gary, really liking the 20mm Pen-F, that took the daisies

a photographers shop, owned since 3, or was it 4, generations, in Kathmandu, Nepal. Selling amazing old prints of his grand or grand grandfather seen behind him on the wall , there was one that showed how the first car was carried, attached to poles, over mountains into the Kathmandu valley ;)
taken with the 15mm Heliar:

This combination really worked for me - the stunning detail of the sensor perfectly suited to the lens...

Mixed feelings, my two GXR/A12M/EVF 2 cameras now on ebay to fund the next stage...

And you're selling it despite such a shot as this? ;-)

Afraid I am indeed... What's worse, I'm also selling the lens!

Truth is I'm not taking it along regularly enough to justify keeping it. OTOH, I'm firm on the price, I've had it up for trade here but no responses so both lens and camera set on sale on an NL vending site now.

Wonderful website, Piers.

What "next stage" initiated the mixed-feeling sale? Just curious...

Thank you for your kind comment, Robert. Your site too is fascinating - I have always believed that photography is capable of being the most "poetic" visual art form - provoking memories, reflections and associations. So it is inspiring to see someone able to work across the visual and verbal fields.

So your question - I have a "need" to travel light and a guilt about accumulating materials that I will hardly use; my other photographic life is available-light documentation for live arts - for this the Fuji's are so way ahead, and in them, now, there is the capability of being the travel/landscape camera too.

In particular, the x100 gets me closest to the past experience of traveling with the Leica M6... (I was an early adopter of the Leica M8 when it first came out and hated it although I'm sure the later generations are great)
