Epson RD1 beats Leica to the punch...
Bill Blackwell Images replied to hjoseph7's topic in Leica and Rangefinders
Prior to the RD-1, which was a co-op between Epson and Cosina, Leica executives insisted a digital M was impossible due to the short rear-lens element to film-plane distance. Plus, Leica wouldn't have considered a cropped censor (the RD-1 has a 1.5x crop factor) prior to the RD-1 (the M8 had a 1.3x crop factor). I dare say that Leica would have never produced a digital M camera unless someone else had done it first. The fact we have full-frame mirrorless cameras today from any manufacturer can be traced back to the RD-1. -

Many years ago I did jobs such as what you describe and weddings. I always used daylight film with fill flash at around ASA 200 (never above 400). I never had an issue. But I also liked to shoot with Tri-X when shooting stage plays. B&W always seemed more "natural" in this venue. But I almost always forced myself back stage for some after shots (sometimes at the intermission) of the actors in character and in costume.
