It is quite possible to be a Leica user and yet be interested in the arcana
of the field without becoming a "collector".  I do have a VISO collection
but the remainder of my Leica gear is all well used, and even my VISO's see
quite a bit of action.  I do not regard myself in any way as a "collector"
-- but I am deeply interested in the finer points of the breed and of its
history.

By the way, I'd guess that LHSA is about 60/40 collector/user in its
membership.  There is a tremendous amount of user-oriented stuff put out by
LHSA and all Leica owners should seriously consider joining.
