I have used (and still do) 4 complete sets of Leica rangefinders from LTM to the very latest. I am as much if not more of a Leicaphile than anyone here. I think that the latest Leica optics are superb...I'm thankful for this because Leica is the only all-mechanical 35mm interchangeable bayonet-lens rangefinder camera currently in production. In my opinion some Leica lenses may be superior to some Nikon lenses at some f-stops, etc., but I think it would be laughably arrogant for me to state unequivocally that Leica lenses are better than Nikon and furthermore that that justifies all else that is wrong with Leica. It would be tantamount to saying that I can see what 95% of the world's photographers (pro and amateur) cannot, and I am not *quite* that arrogant.
