Default Leica M Monochrome

So, I just spent about 40 mins using this gem in a simulated concert setting at a photo expo and then immediately plunked down a deposit. Literally drool worthy and the detail is phenominal.

I'm a bit down on the list but they say I may be able to purchase it by Oct. My heart may slow down by then...I hope.

I wouldn't be ditching my Canon gear. The Leica would be for certain circumstances and oh, what a tool it is.
