The ones who run out every year to buy the latest-model Canon SLRs are pretty
much the same.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with a camera design from 1954.  Film
photography hasn't changed since then, so there's no reason why a longstanding
design cannot continue to serve.  I wouldn't say that Leicas are all the rage,
though--as I've pointed out before, most people have never heard of Leica.
