I find the following two articles are quite interesting. Although some of you might have read them, I would still like to share them here and hear your comments:

From the reviews, no doubt the M-M is very impressive in producing details. But I wonder if this is the camera for a serious B&W photographer due to the fact that you are unable to post-process the image by adjusting colors (digital color filters, channel mixing, etc).



On the other hand, I had an impression that Henri Cartier-Bresson never used a color filter on his lens. So perhaps the inability to do color mixing is not a problem for at least documentaty type photographs?
