Well, granted, you have a point and I wasn't really thinking specifics in this case. I theory, however, it is potentially interesting to hear someone's reasoning on why they _didn't_ opt for a certain system. I don't pay much attention to anyone's reviews one way or another. I have to feel the stuff in my own hands to know whether or not they fit. The magazines do not write bad reviews (bad business) and other users have different needs than I do. So despite all the bad rap about Leica SLR:s ... I could probably still consider one if I needed a (new) SLR. But so many other variables have to be counted in. Now if you need a digital SLR and you (think you) need a film SLR, the choices are not many. Still, I'm irrational enough that I'd pick up a Leica SLR if I found a bargain ... particularly as I grow older with weaker eyes.
