I don't feel offended when somebody asks "I feel a little bit uncomfortable with my Leica. I ask your advice about keeping it or not". Some guys here act as if they were cardinals during the Great Inquisition. That does not reflect my opinion and does not seem consistent with the position of the fellow Luggers I met. Saying to somebody "You're a moron because you don't see Leicas as the Alpha and Omega" won't help him and does not bring substance to the discussion. Photographers using Leicas are not a sect nor they are in a camp of any kind. At the opposite, most of them take advantage of photography to meet other people. Why not other photographers?
