It is a very fine camera that excels in many ways. The construction and finish are excellent, with high quality control in the finish of the camera and lenses. The G2 is remarkably capable. Although I prefer my M6's for certain situations, there are many others where I choose my G2 system. I suppose the reference to the Leica M being high tech is a joke - compared to the G2. Of course (funny remarks aside), the M is very low tech and the G2 is quite high tech. Tom Shea
