David,

David,
It's called anti cameratism. Only the one true camera, the Leica is capable 
of creating  perfect images. It doesn't matter that through other cameras 
compelling images can be created , they are not created through the one true 
camera factory, therefore they hold no validity in the eyes of an anti 
cameratist. 

Just as with some  religious sects, there are zealots who will be convinced 
that any belief other than there's is valid. The true Leica Zealot believes 
that there is no other path than Leica. All others are condemned to the fires 
of Camerahell.

Is a camera that might force Leica to compete more intensely in an open 
marketplace really that bad? It seems that those who believe in the one true 
Leica think so.
