Whoa!!! Awesome... Leica is crazy expensive, but very cool.
Honestly though... look seriously at the SL. The SL is amazing, and not at all big by our previous Nikon standards. It is WAY easier to shoot the M lenses on the SL than on the M. With the SL, you also have the option to AF with the SL lenses which are insanely good. I have the SL plus both zooms.
I love shooting the M lenses on the SL though... I shot this today using the SL and 35mm F1.4 FLE @ 1.4. I personally would not buy an M body... but many many LOVE them.

This is officially the last wedding I have booked last year; needless to say, I'm steeping away from paid photography completely.
Excited! I know @Donzo98@@ will approve of this Whoa!!! Awesome... Leica is crazy expensive, but very cool.

That's the thing, I do not want a "toy" camera. The Leica SL just looks and feels like a toy to me. Maybe because I'm not a fan of mirrorless?
I want to take photos while chanllanging myself. That is also to enjoy photography.
So it's definitely going to be an M7 or M10, I don't want any autofocusing capabilities or anything like that.
When I have kids, I'll definitely get something that auto focuses fast.
I've tried and tried many cameras and many lenses. It's boring now, doesn't bring me any interest in photography anymore. I know a "real" Leica camera will change that
To me... the SL feels nothing like a toy. It has awesome build quality. I had a Sony A7S for one day. before I sold i here. Now that really felt like a toy.
With that said though... I get it. The M10 looks incredible, and so many rave about it.
Glad to have you over on the Leica side Just get your wallet out... and dump out the contents...

If you really like to challenge yourself, get the M7

You under estimate M capability You can do pretty much anything with M below 50mm once you spend enough time with it. 50 longer is not M territory. It is still most enjoyable system I ever used by far.
I dunno, I shoot formal portraits usually several times a week with my M 262 and a 75 summarit. In fact i will be at it tomorrow morning. Works just fine.
