Because there are people that believe that the M line died with the M4.
There was nothing after it that is a REAL Leica.

Why?  Who knows what makes people take on opinions?

Remember, ,they both take Leica Glass.....!  And THAT is why many use Leica
cameras... not the body designator.......

Nikon = Nikon F
Canon = Canon F1

Both were hard wearing bodies.... and both took market share from Leica RF
cameras...... but a few years apart..... (15- 20?)

> Why is it not a M4?  Don't understand.  Maybe because it was made in
Canada?  Also a Nikon F1?  Was not this F1 moniker a Canon body?  After the
F came the F2...
