The CM is an excellent little camera that can take stunning photos.
Its great for low light photography and for occasions where you wouldn't take a rangefinder or SLR.
Being clumsy, I appreciate its robust design. It'll survive a lot better than any digital p&s.

It lacks manual focus (although you can set focus distance via a dial on top) and obviously doesn't have through-the-lens focus. So you're reliant on the camera's distance meter or your own best judgement.

They're not particularly cheap, but if you can afford it, or get one second hand, you'll never regret it!
