When I returned to the True Path of Leica in December 2008 and bought
my M8, I also bought a Voigtlander (Cosina) Bessa R2M as a backup
body. It is light, inexpensive, takes my M lenses and is not dependent
on battery power (except for light metering). In other words, a bit
like an M6 but a lot cheaper.
My M8 has functioned flawlessly since I bought it, so I have not
really had to use the Bessa for backup. I did shoot a roll of film in
it during January and February, just to test the backup. Some of the
resulting images may be worth showing:

As always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
