i have e LIFE question: Should i do the jump?

like many of the readers of this forum i´m a photo fan addicted to photo gear... i lost count of how many cameras that i own...

my equipment's is the next, not including Lomo's etc:

Body's:
Nikon F100
Nikon FE
FED2
Leica CL
Leitz/Minolta CL

Nikon D70s
Ricoh GRD

Lens:
Nikon E 50mm f1.8
Nikon D 50mm f1.4
Nikon D 28-105 f3.5-4.5
Nikon DX 17-70 f4.5-5.6
Leica Summicrom 40mm f2
Jupiter 8

Flash:
Nikon SB-28dx


My last acquisition was the Leica CL... and i become a fan of RF. The Nikon FE and the 50mm f1.4 stays like the Ricoh GRD. And know i need help to decide:

- Do u think i can get 1800 € for the Nikon f100 + 28-105 + sb28 + Leica CL + Leica 40mm + Leits CL + FED2? And buy a Bessa R4 a Voigtlander 15mm and a 35mm f1.2

- and after should i sell the nikon d70s and the 17-70 to buy a Epson RD-1s? after i stole a grandmother on the street...

- Should i trade a CL to a Bessa R4m?

Thanks!

Marum

Why do you want an R4M over a CL?

- Dunno the value of cameras these days, really.

- I would keep the d70. I love my R-D1 but to give up all of my gear to afford one? I saved up for a year before getting one, and kept my other gear. I'm glad I did as both my R-D1 and my Canon Eos 300d have their uses.

- I would keep the CL. IMO the CL + 40/2 is the best little rf combo for travelling.

mmmh, no! I think they are worth a little less, something like 1200-1300€...
