    "User" vs "Used"?

    Mitchell - I might be wrong, but when I think of "user" I compare it to collector cars. If it's a 1959 Jag Drop Head Coupe, that is non concourse, it's a daily driver. There are all levels of "daily drivers." You can take them out and enjoy the road, not hide them in the garage untill the show. I used to burn rubber, now I burn film. Ain't life grand. Brian. p.s. Al is right.

    R6 / M6

    Howard - I started this "vow of poverty" innocently enough (4yrs. ago) with a R6.2 The 50mm f/2 is one of my favorite lens. I just this spring bought an M3 with Dual Range 50. I cannot pick between one or the other. Both are totally different. Pick the body that feels best in your hand. Lenses for either are great. Good luck Brian.

    Where you from mister?

    Born Glasgow Scotland/ grew up Burbank California/ moved to Bellingham Washington (31yrs). Foolish man, taking up Leica after retiring from fire fighting. Began my vow of poverty with R6.2/ moved to R8 for bird photography and portraiture/ discovered M3 about 6 months ago/ now trying to figure out the next M series to buy and how to hide it from my wife (37yrs). Thanks for the question Craig.
