They just don't consider as a serious alternative to N***n or C****n.. ==================================================================== I agree, I think: as far as I know, most pros would not invest in an SLR system as expensive as Leica R. A pro would probably consider the R bodies to be too far from state-of-the-art and would not feel the need for the perceived edge of Leitz optics. I've also heard that pros appreciate the equipment back-up available with Canon/Nikon, including the possibility of borrowing a lens, say, from another pro when needed - - there's lots of Canons and Nikons about.
