Leica M-E

Post by GregPQ »

Interesting article here about the £3,900 Leica M-E, written by a professional photographer for the Guardian. Here is an excerpt:

"My everyday Japanese DSLR is the camera equivalent of a people carrier: it does what it is supposed to do, but it is not an
object of beauty. The Leica feels and looks (even in its digital form) like the equivalent of Inspector Morse's Mark II Jaguar."


Cheers to all,

Some day I would love to own a Leica -- but like the Endeavor's car, it's way out of the budget for me -- I simply wouldn't use it enough to get the value out of it -- not to mention that I have competing expenses such as a mortgage payment, food, heating, etc.
