I have to admit, for me, it's the red dot syndrome.

They weigh a ton.  They are archaic.  They only take Leitz lenses (i.e. the 
do NOT take Rodagons or Componons or el-Nikkors).

I only hope that after I buy one, use it, get fed up with it, it is still 
coveted by someone and I can recover my cost.

regards
Vick
