My thanks. Yes, basically I know that adapters exist and that I can fit my M-mount lenses to several newer mirrorless cameras. But I would think this would have already spawned multiple threads of "this vs that" body, etc. No? I'm trying to leapfrog a couple generations, going straight from analog film to reasonably current. Not cheap, but the A7iii seems a valid option. Maybe the next iteration of Canon, Nikon, or the others may really shine for such purposes. Again, are there not long, well-developed threads debating all this? I love the feel of old lenses, and I have a few real beauts! Certainly I cannot be alone. If not a Leica body, then what? and why? and . . . where? Thanks, again.

Hi, I’m a beginner only in a sense. I have years of film range-finder experience, and a collection of bodies and lenses to show. But I walked away from photography some years ago to do other things. Anyway, now I want to get a digital body to use with my vintage lenses. Almost all of these are Leica M mount lenses. I cannot seem to find threads discussing the various merits of the options, and experience in practice. Surely this cannot be an undiscussed subject arena, can it? For me, full frame simply means more lenses I can use. So, it mostly seems to be the Sony A series, or the new bodies from Nikon & Canon. I’m leaning heavily towards the A7iii. I cannot justify the expense of a Leica digital body, although I really covet the newest, re-slimmed M10 P. Sigh. Anyway, where are the discussions of the range finder shooters who want to use their manual vintage lenses in the digital (mirrorless) world? I don’t want to open a thread in the wrong forum, so please? Many thanks.
