Sure, when the Leica digital products get it right they're fantastic.
I still get much weirder choices of colour balance from my Leicas than
from other cameras.  And of course resolution isn't everything (though
it is some thing).

I still wish Leica would make a dSLR the size of an M9 with a prism
housing added with a good clear finder.  I always hated the R8/9.

But my number one wish, still, is that monochrome camera.  I don't
care who makes it; I'll get one.
