Colen jotted down the following: > If the Konica Hexar RF bodies prove to be reliable, > there may not be an M around much longer.... I will be very suprised if Leica cameras cease to be made. There will always be Leica, just as there will always be Ferarri, Patek Philippe, Bulgari etc., because premium luxury goods sell pretty much regardless of the general economic climate. Now, an extreme case might be where Leica only manufactures limited edition, jewel-encrusted, platinum Ms to order, but I'm they'll be around, even if the Konica Hexar RF sells ten times as many rangefinders as Leica does per year.
