I don't think any camera is better than any other based on an objective
basis.  The best camera for any photographer is the camera he or she likes
best.  I like the M6 and so it is the best camera for me.

On what basis would you say the Hexar RF is of a poorer quality than
the Leica M? Again, based on real data.

No one has still answered my question: On what objective basis is the
M6 better than the Hexar RF, and history, conjecture and mystique
don't count.
