But the lenses it does have are terrific, and it has some great features... B. D. I should add that G2 metering system is less accurated then M6 one, at least for a habitual spot metering user, and that it is almost impossible to use DOF. Otherwise a very good camera. New lens will come and, besides, a true zoom is offered, and they have, as Leica had, a terrific Hologon. As I do not like to make a choice I got both but by the moment I am using Leica and I wish to buy ney lenses. Kind regards Kind
