Of course this camera is a collectable item for one's shelf or vault. But to say Leica is a commemorative company is ridiculous! The vast majority of their products are meant to be USED, and at least a few of us do so on a regular basis. The waltzing Nikon owners can dis Leica all they want. They are wrong. Bob Kramer
