Probably no complaints, because if it were a Leica, it would be selling 
for $6000, Though I personally don't complain about Leica pricing or how 
they build stuff.   I just wait until the fondlers get tired of dusting 
stuff off, and buy used.  Sometimes it takes a few years to get it, but 
I get the kit I want.  With digital, the cycle advances faster!
