[Leica] Leica: 100 Jobs lost

[Ted Grant]

NATHAN mon ami!
ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!
Any camera! No matter how much it costs, or lens used? Make, electronics or
every new fangled aspect created by super technicians is only as good as the
person holding it! 
AND MAKING IT "CLICK @ PRECISLY" MAGICAL EMOTIONAL, PEAK OF THE MOMENT! 
Oh sure some of the newly created electronics, lenses etc. make the captured
image "sparkle like well polished diamonds & gold!"

SO WHAT????????? If the lighting is crap, the composition sucks like a brick
and whatever other dumb-ass mistake the shooter makes?

WAKE-UP CREW! THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!!Nor the eyes
of the photog! His/her reactions to the peak moment.
COMPOSITION AND WTHOUT QUESTION? 
The gut feeling as the camera clicks capturing the emotions of the shooter,
male or female and "what triggered their emotions!!!" NOT THE SQUIGGLY
GADGET INSIDE THE LENS?
LEICA FOR EXAMPLE MAKING THESE NEW FANGLED CAMERAS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF
PUTTING THEMSELVES OUT OF BUSINESS! NO YOU SAY????
JUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-(
BECAUSE THE GREAT NUMBER OF US WHO HAVE MANAGED TO SUPPORT THEM FOR YEARS
(me? 50 OR MORE years buying their gear" at least, if not more! Owning and
using at the same time! 6 bodies, 3 M's hanging around my neck, different
lenses. And at the same time, 3 motor driven SLR's, all at once! 2 on left
shoulder and one on my right shoulder with a tele lens just in case! A few
lenses not mounted, just in case you require a TELE-800! 
We "CAN NO LONGER BUY Their GEAR/CAMERAS etc. BECAUSE THE INCOMES OF
PHOTOGRAPHERS OR POSITIONS FOR THEM ON MAGAZINES, WIRE SERVICES,NEWSPAPERS.
Commercially etc. are diminishing!
HOWEVER? LEICA ADD ALL THIS NEW FANGLED BITS & PIECES, JACK-UP THE PRICES
WHEN ALL THIS STUFF HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH "SEEING, CAPTURING THE MAGICAL
MOMENT!" 
Mark my words crew the day is coming!
UNFORTUNATELY :-(

Usually the root cause has little to do with the equipment as opposed to the
person using that equipment.

Cheers,
