with mint nikkormats selling for $75 on ebay, it's hard to go spend leica money for an old school camera.
the only rangefinder i've ever used was a german made graflex and i never came to like it. jaime is big into the cheap voigtlanders, but i don't like his either. I also used to shoot a lot of TLR, but now i generally just use the canon 10D as it is so convenient. then again, i might use a leica for 3 minutes and have my mind totally blown forever.
