Make that two, Erwin, and thanks for putting it so straightforward and 
matter-of-factly. 

It seems to illustrate, to me, at least, the lengths that we Leica folk 
will go to justify owning Leica. Don't get me wrong; I, too, own it,
love it, and am buying more of it, BUT, darned if I can see much 
difference in the way of images twixt it and the Canon EOS kit that I 
got rid of to achieve my lifelong lust. I happen to like the fit, feel, 
finish and the fact that I can pretty well be assured that, with only a 
few exceptions, whatever glass I get from Leica will be as good as, and 
occasionally better than any other vendor's product. I like high grade 
shotguns for the same reasons.
