I'm in the midst of returning from an ae/af system to a purebred Leica system. In my situation, it's not only for optical quality; it's also a desire to work with "build quality". Tripod mounts that add value, properly centered elements, the accuracy of non af focusing, built in quality hoods, focusing rings that are "smoooooth", cameras with mirror lock up when needed, brilliant viewfinders, etc. etc.!! And BTW; I abhor electric shavers, Microwave food, & shopping at Wal-Mart outlets. Talk about the stomping of jackboots on gray slate! Really ;-)! Tom D.
