Perfect description... Maybe this is what sort of put me off of the Leica M6... the CL was a little less "annoying" that way..then again.. a lot of it was the mystique. The mystique and the lenses were excellent.
BUT I did actually find it difficult to take quick shots... Frank's been trying by using the hyperfocal distance on the 40mm Summicron and I think he's had good results so far though.. so maybe it's all in the hands of the photographer.

Hi, > The Leica is smaller, brighter, much smarter looking, but > operates somewhat slower. I think that the Leica is better suited to "commitied photography"(yep i made that up), when your actualy walking around really photographing something and thinking about it, in this sort of situation the leica is a very intutive tool. But where it becomes slow and awkward is when you want to just grab a shot of something. I assume you were talking about a leica-m. Paul - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
