If you think about it these limited edition camera are made for collection 
not for use. Few will take pictures with it the ones who use hundred dollar 
bills to light their cigars and line up rare items in class cases on their 
walls. I don?t think we need to worry about the ins and outs of the specs of 
yet another money making camera for Leica who I can't see at this point 
would really need to be doing stuff like this anymore to pay the bills as 
they are running in the black now. From a PR standpoint it makes them look 
silly not smart or useful.
If I was into collecting I'd got real old Leica cameras which were real cool 
and functional and maybe brassy and was just a tiny bit rare. If I was 
looking for ways to spend my millions.
