I like mine too (RD1S), and agree with you points, but one - battery life on mine if fine. Maybe you need some new/better batteries?

actually my battery life is ok too but it seems to be a complaint from a few.

Or Dodgers, Angels, or Lakers. Sorry, just not impressed with someone's abilty to do acrobatics with a ball. Id prefer the Chinese circus....cure cancer or initiate health care reform, now that would impress me.
Thank you.

I miss my R-D1. Yes the pictures it took were like signatures, unique. But the I miss all the cameras I have sold. Did I say go Red Sox? No.....ok GO RED SOX!!!!

... because RD1 is the very most analog of all digital cameras.

I can't see how the RD-1 can possibly work; it has an optical VF and interchangeable lenses....

Totally true. It feels and works like a manual film camera. I can't remember the last time I flipped the lcd screen around to chimp, I feel totally at home with it. I love it to death. Complaints? Some batteries seem to have much more life than others, but that's about it.

Judge not by the size of your sensor, it's how you use it that counts.
That's what you guys with small sensors always say

My battery life is quite good. I think I would want an M8 or M8.2, but would still keep the R-D1 (s). Fortunately for me, I'm too poor for the Leica so the M6 will have to suffice.

It's no where near as nice as a Canon P.

Oh Gawd, I'm crackin'up here.
I've been really making an effort to stay out of that thread, dontcha think I'm doing fine so far?ROFL
That's funny- maybe the three (coincidence?) that I have are easier for me to focus that the Bessa R2. The 1x finder is nice.
I may pick up an RD-1 if one pops up at a good price. I'll have to post a "mortality" thread. My 1992 and 1997 DSLRS's are still working. Even the SCSI hard drive in the DCS200 is functioning correctly. I have a spare to replace it with.

i never had a problem focussing my p's but after i started to use the m3 and then the zi, i realized that the round patch was harder for me to focus than a sq/rec patch. it seems less precise.
