It almost seems like you've been using the little TX1 more than your Leica, if one is allowed to even mention that possibility...

Went on a hike with the Pentax K10D and Sigma 18-300 Contemporary

Loving the K10D, I'm finding its output to be sharper than my D200 and it's easier to not have to deal with slow CF cards.

D200 is also doing quite well, very nice default output.

Here are some shots from it, all taken with helicoid and 50mm Yashica F1.8

Ha, it is so easy to take along I find myself using more and more. I really haven't shot my M9 much by comparison to my other cameras. It has only been in the last year or so that the M9 has seen a lot of use because I've been on an infrared kick with it lately.

Purchased new around 1982. It still works, I still use it and the batteries last forever.

A poor old mare with some heavy winter coat still left despite the heatwave. That's a Dartmoor heatwave, of course, so just moderately warm weather by the standards of most folk. With the K100D and 18-55mm.

K10D with Yashica 50mm 1.7 did these shots to show that its very close focusing for an old manual 50 - surprising, lovely lens.

And one pic of my bugeye

Good stuff, guys. I'll have to trot out my old Texas Instruments TI-30 I used in college in 1977. It still works but the red LED's flicker a bit.
