For those interested, DxO/Sony are promoting a free copy of DxO Filmpack 3 until the end of October. I have downloaded it but not had a chance to try it out. FYI.
Nice shot's Ryan. I KNEW you would start out with a simple kit (again) and work your way up to an M240 and set of lux's... Hopefully you can get one quickly. It is one great camera and I have no regrets at all.

There's one for sale here now.
The M240 is listed here as being in a 9 condition with an asking priced of $7,175.00 (new list price though not really available is $6950). I thought that it was generally frowned upon on the forum to sell items for a profit.

I think all is fair when an item is backordered... I pay premium for rush shipping and for an item I wouldn't otherwise be able to get.
I wouldn't object so much if the camera showed less signs of wear for the asking price, but, it is listed as a 9.
It seems like a markup is more the norm rather than the exception nowadays for new models in short supply.
Allen, that last shot is awesome! Works great as an abstract, but i am wondering what/where it is.
Katie, you really are showing off the the Nokton50. I don't know if it is your PP style or the lens, but it seems to have a very dreamy rendering style: Gentler colors, moderate contrast combined with a gentler focus falloff (compared to the Leica asphericals) and a slight swirl to the bokeh. I wonder what your observations are about the Nokton.
Charles, thanks for posting pics from the Cron rigid, i might try this lens since i'm still looking for another 50 that renders very different from the 50lux.
Michael, thanks for the suggestion, i am generally bad at perspective correction because in tend to overdo/underdo but i think it is good idea. The "Square" shot is my favorite.
Gary, that train shot has microcontrast in spades.
