Absolutely I will stay, although of course I will announce pictures
less frequently, since the M8 will be my primary tool. But I am
certainly keeping the E3 outfit for those occasions when an SLR is
required.
Just as background, I was shooting Leica M film cameras from 1998
until deciding to switch to digital in the fall of 2004. At that time,
Leica had no viable digital offering, so I first bought Canon, but
last year switched to Olympus for a variety of reasons, not least the
quality of the lenses. Now that the prices of M8s have fallen to a
level where I can play along, I am going back to rangefinder
photography.
I bought the E420 for those occasions when I needed to travel light,
but since an M8 with a 35mm is more or less the same size, there is no
rationale for keeping the E420.
Cheers,
Nathan
