>>I think the real reasons that M cameras are so useful
have to do with the "emotional resonance" of the cameras themselves,
and the "transparency" of the lenses that let's them
express emotion and idea.

Actually, it has to do with the smooth and quiet shutters, the lack of a
bloody reflex mirror and their light weight. Nothing emotional about it, it
is just a camera. Please try to explain the comment about "emotional
resonance", and the 'Transparency of the lens that lets them express
emotion and idea".
