Jesse:

Are you trying to start a war? My point was simply that Leica is
outstanding is it stands, other products don't have to be poor quality for
Leica to be outstanding. But you left that out of the part of my message
you quoted. Misquoting is the sort of thing people do when they're trying
to stir up trouble.

Here was the essence of my post: "Leica is built as well as any. It's
optics are superb, and can be used to create unique and moving photographs.
That's all that needs to be said."
