[Leica] Leica M8 Tryout?

[hewthompson at mac.com (Hugh Thompson)]

Jerry - by any standards unacceptable for a high end camera dealer.   
In fact he does not deserve to represent Leica.  My dealer not only  
allowed me to handle the camera before I bought it, but gave it to me  
to take home and work with it.  He also always takes a new camera for  
himself, and works with it so he can advise you fully on function and  
handling.  That's exactly what he did with the M8.  He was months  
ahead of most dealers.

There is the difference, he is a professional who shoots himself for  
stock etc, and a dealer who only handles Leica along with other  
equipment.  Come to Canada, get to know a really knowledgeable dealer:
