Subject: Re: Re[2]: [Leica] M brochure WOW!!!!

I just read the PDF formatted brochure (I skipped the screened type).  I think
that the brochure incorporates many of the criticisms of Leica marketing that
were discussed on this list previously.  I think they are definitely on the
right track.  I particularly liked their comment that cameras purchased years
ago are worth more now than when new and the statement  that modern production
lenses can  be used on M cameras produced 45 years ago.  I think they are on
the right track for the M cameras.  If you choose to order a printed copy,
Alta Vista's Babelfish does a credible job of translating the order page.
("frewillige Angaben" translates to "optional information" in
American-English).
