And I think when we look at things that way, we miss the point. >Using Lieca makes me a better photographer. That's the real point, IMHO. Huh? If, as has been stated many times, certain Leica lenses are sharper, able to resolve more detail, and offer greater contrast than lenses from some other manufacturers, or if Leica focusing is more accurate, I can see how, in the right hands and in the right circumstances, a particular photograph may be "better" (technically) than one made with inferior equipment, but I cannot understand how a piece of equipment can make one a better photographer. - -- Shel Belinkoff mailto:belinkoff@earthlink.net
