I am sure that if Leica would be (or would have been) able to design an excellent AF systemas Canon and Nikon (and others) there would be a lot less Leica users "against" AF :-) If you take a photographer good in using a MF camera and you give him an AF camera he can do just do the same as before plus a lot more thus implying probably lot more (good) shots. (Just objectivity). Then, comments are matter of quality of lens and obviously of "religious fights". cheers, logan.
