Le*ca M7 would be sweet, but to experience the freedom
of a rangefinder at a rational price, (and at the risk of re-starting a flame)
consider the new Voightlander, and it's screw-mount lenses... even the
Le*ca-group is conceding they're good.
I've been playing with a Bessa-L (like the old Le*ca 1f, but with a TTL
meter)and I love it. It probably won't ever fully replace my OMs, but it's a
wonderful complement to them. If you haven't seen Stephen Gandy's CameraQuest
site, it's sure worth a look:

Yes, I know it's the same basic chassis as the much didained OM 2000, but in
this context, it really works.
Note also that a re-badged version of this Cosina product has just been
announced by Rolleiflex.... in case you have a burning desire to spend a lot
more money for the same thing.
