[Leica] Compact Cameras

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

Its not regimented Rei they just need to have a minimum of quality output
for their clients.
I feel real good about as I've been hyping the X1 on the LUG as a serious
"pro" camera because of its not small format in  the small cameras and with
its excellent optics making it a very strong it would seem to me choice.
But have a slight tinge of egg on my face as they are accepting the Olympus
E3 which is a 2x crop circle factor. My money would have been on that not
happening..

I'm happy I'm still in the running as they accept the Nikon D200 which is
the strongest body I've got.
They also accept a Leica M8 people on this list would be glad to hear.
>From all I can tell black and white or color.

Smaller formats than 4/3's coming from an E3 need not apply.
I can see the logic on that.
