[Leica] Mirrorless and dust

[Aram Langhans]

Thanks, Bernard.  Glazers did have a Z9 demo out but I did not even try 
it.  Way too heavy and big for me now.  The darn Q2 has spoiled me so 
that now my D750 seems too big.  When I reached for a camera this trip 
unless I really needed macro or something longer than say 70mm, the Q2 
is what I grabbed. Hence my quest for perhaps a Z6 or 7.  I even liked 
the Z5 as it had a few things the others did not have that I liked.  
Weight, price, 2-SD slots.  Of course, it was lacking a few things too, 
but maybe those things are not so important to me anymore.  I might even 
go for the Z crop sensor body if it had decent lenses, but the DX lenses 
are not up to snuff and using the full frame lenses limits the wide end 
that I use more often than the long end.  Pretty much anything over 
200mm is a waste for me to carry.
