It had to happen, way too many cameras and lenses are not a good thing to have. Since I bought the M240 and started acquiring Leica lenses, I found myself picking up the RD-1 less and less. So I finally found a good home for it (I think). A fellow from an RD-1 group on FB saw my post about "possibly" needing to sell my RD-1 and inquired about it.
Long story short, I received a prompt paypal remittance and shipped the camera to marry old England. I have to admit, even though I rarely shot with it and I can use the $$ for other things, I do miss that beautiful camera. I love my Leica and it's of course, much better in most respects. But the form and ergonomics of the Epson are really quite superior in my mind.
If they made a new RD-(x) with the FF sensor, live view, etc., I'd be seriously looking at one.
