Just for curiosity...is there any practical advantage to the Titanium M6 and
Titanium M lenses that I see offered at much higher prices then other RF
gear?  Another marketing gimmick?  Is the camera much lighter?  The lenses?
I know some of us are actually using the Titanium cameras and lenses ( and
no criticism implied or intended, or course) ...or, are most people simply
buying and collecting as one might with all of the other Leica Special
Editions?  Wonder how long it might take for the Titanium gear to appreciate
to where the purchase might be worth it?
