Colen Sent: Monday, July 12, 2004 11:09 AM To: 'Leica Users Group' Subject: RE: [Leica] Digital M Digital cameras are not 'just boxes.' The sensor and firmware have an enormous amount to do with the quality of the image produced. And I didn't, btw, say anything about the 'look' of the camera; I said 'similar build and image quality.' As in build quality and image quality. Or, to put it really bluntly, why would anyone in his or her right mind pay 5500K - for example - for an "M" body when for the same amount of money he or she could buy an 8 mpg Canon Eos MkII and an array of Canon's best lenses? I know, I know, it's not a Leica, and it wouldn't take your m lenses. ;-) -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Frank Filippone Sent: Monday, July 12, 2004 1:54 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: RE: [Leica] Digital M Whoops.. isn't a camera body just a box? The optics create the image? Look and feel are not involved in the image creation.
