[Leica] To Sell or Not to Sell

[summicron at comcast.net (Frank F. Farmer)]

You don't have to take my word for it.  Canon couldn't get the lens  
and camera to work right, either, despite their multiple trips to the  
warranty repair shop.  Both were gotten rid of.  I replaced them with  
a Nikon and have had no similar such problems.  I don't really care  
what the name on the front of the body is, I just want the features to  
work.  My Canon didn't and Canon couldn't (or wouldn't) fix it.
