How nice! Do you still use them?
I have still not witched to digital photography myself. Only for snapshots, I use a Leica D-Lux 5 and a V-Lux 20. These are rebranded Panasonics, I know, and paying a lot more just to have the Leica label is silly, I know. However, since a local merchantman here owns Leica and led the company from the very edge of bankruptcy into a better perspective, I somewho feel compelled to support it.
And for the real "zen of photography" I still use an M6 and an MP with slide film, As long as Fuji produces the Velvia, this is not likely to change:
