My dream Leica M would be a meterless (I have a a bunch of old meters) B&W no LCD, fully manual camera and the only thing that would need the battery is the sensor. A wind that would cock the shutter. That would be a dream digital Leica M for me. It will never happen but I can dream ha ha, For now my 2 M10s and my M 10 Mono are just fine.
I think you want to shoot film, it's OK to admit it! Film is trendy again. Break out your M2 (M6 if you need a meter) and your favorite roll of HP5!
I hear ya. I shot film for decades. More of a Tri-X guy than Ilford. Shot X 10 Deardorffs, had Hasselblad 500 C/Ms and still have my Canon F-1s. Would probably still be shooting film if I had a darkroom. Lost it when I had to downsize divorce about 25 years ago. Clients forced me to go digital 20 + years ago. I went Canon and hated the automation. I dreaded picking up the cameras. I couldn't stand all the automation. Picked up an M9 Mono in 2012 and fell in love with Leica again. Went all Leica M in 2015 after selling all my canon stuff. The only piece of Canon gear that I got any kind of return on was the 200 2L. Even the 85 1.2L took a beating.
