Continuing to enjoy this relatively small, relatively light kit as it\u00a0simply delivers extremely fine digital photographic files. All of the visual qualities I’ve come to expect from\u00a0Leica range finder and SLR cameras and lenses appear on the computer screen with virtually no post processing. With each use of the R lenses I become more comfortable with the EVF and focus assist; even as I continue to enjoy the mostly manual operation of focus, diaphragm and shutter controls. The full 24×36 mm frame of the M allows the entire M and R lens lines to perform to their full design potential.
