It depends on where you draw the line between the two. Depending on price. If
it's cheap enough you won't
get arrested by the "?????" police for actually taking it outside and shooting a
roll with it. Even a regular Leica made be nervous taking it outside and
shooting a roll of film with it at first.
My friend has a Hasselblad FE with a lens which cost 10 grand. Walking down the
street with him and cameras I expect to get mugged by a Yuppie.
