Hi, Frank I'm very enabled. It looks gorgeous in black and I know the reuptation. I made some investigation and the camera has cult following. I like the fact it's mechanical and it's cheap. I'm carrying my ME Super all day long for not very safe zones, so I like the idea of a decent camera that costs 1/4 of my ME Super. And I like the idea of getting a rangefinder. I tryed it just a bit in the shop and seems very clear and easy to use. Regards
