Don,
WOW! This way I could afford a whole M-lens lineup (and a second one as
backup)...

Maybe, today there are less classic camera collectors and shooters than
there were in the past.
But I notice a growing interest in classic creative techniques (photo,
illustration, design, music) amongst our students at the Lucerne School of
Art+Design. They're overdosed from overfeatured digital tools. When I teach
them interactive design, in the intervalls they don't ask me about Flash or
DHTML, but "show me your Leica in your pocket, please"...
