i saw this stuff, and don't know whether i should be amused or angered that
even COPIES of leicas are 'collectible' and, in many cases, every bit as
expensive as the real thing. i know, i know; it's the camera, not the make
of the camera, that counts - can it give good results, that's what's
important - to leica or not to leica, that is not the question. but still,
this is really more than a bit perverse.
