Guest BlackBarn Posted September 28, 2021 Share #143  Posted September 28, 2021 Digital or film….does it matter….? Well may be if digital trains the eye to see towards the bland or film prevents exploring creative options. Regardless…simply love these portraits.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, I'm going through the same thing now - I have a black chrome M-A (and a silver chrome M4) and am on the fence about buying an M3 SS. It's just hard to justify the > $2K price for an M3 when it's so similar to what I already have (ok, the viewfinder is different). Of course I could have used that same argument and not bought the M4, but I obviously have limited self-control 😀 P.S. Anyone remember when M3s were under $1K - not long ago?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to confirm whether your CC assesses any fees for oversees transactions.   Edited September 30, 2021 by RayD28 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
