I, for one, changed to leica after many years of dreaming about owning one (I now have an M3 and an M6 together with a variety of lenses) and I have never felt a moment of regret. They ideally suit me and my type of work, and they are simply the best lenses and cameras I have used in some 40 years of photography. It is the people who constantly complain and pull Leica to pieces for nit-picking little things that will eventually be the demise of the marque, not the thousands of very satisfied users out here! I look forward to the changes that Erwin talks about and hope that I can afford some of them, but in the meantime I will sleep easy in my bed knowing that, even if I can't, the camera that was made 40 years or more ago will still earn me money and give good service. How many more brands can you say that about? Gerry (UK)
