Martin,
Quite frankly it's garbage! And I'm being as polite as I can under great
restraint!

What do hands have to do with "seeing photo moments?"

Then they use Brian Adams as one of the photographers and it's nothing more
than a bloody joke playing on a "celebrity " who has a leica.  Have you ever
seen any brilliant photographs shot by Bryan Adams?

Yep  he's a great guitar plucker and singer. But a photographer of some
reputation?

Give me a break!

The ad campaign is another of those Mickey mouse moron campaigns Leica do
that are worthless!
