[Leica] Screw the Nocti...

[Mark Rabiner]

I don't agree with the Criticism of the 28 cron I'd love one. I love the
compactness of it.
It was put out here or other lists that it was made at a lower standard.
I'd call that baloney. It doest say Summarit on it does it . That's the only
"bargain" lower standard Leica ever made. If Leica was going to do a thing
like that it would certainly be in their website and not be come kind of
inside secret for photo list people.
