Unless you want to spend $2600 on the F6." Chris I think the size of the beast did more than anything else to kill the sales...I felt like I was hauling my old Speed Graphic around...You had no anonymity with that camera, it always drew a crowd. The F6 BTW is closer to $2000. "I actually moved from an F100 to a Leica. I thought that the camera was great, but it was too fancy for me...... Frank" I traded my F5 for a Leica and have not regretted it for a moment....I still have my F3 (and my Speed Graphic) Jon
