I can empathize with his position re: reviewing Leica equipment. Leica is
not prone to releasing equipment that stinks, so he is condemned to giving
lots of very good reviews. But if you want to see some not so impartial very
good reviews, pick up a gun magazine in the US. Every caption to every
picture ends with an exclamation point(!)
