Subject: [Leica] Thoughts on the ZI rangefinder

That is the thing about Leica Ms -- we know they work, typically w/o flaw, 
especially the M6 and MP.  Will the ZI have any glitches?  We'll see.  If it 
doesn't, then I think it will sell very well.

design flaws or QC issues (MP has a gap for dust to enter), but by all  
accounts, Hexar RF tends to get out of vertical alignment, CV lens tend to  
de-center (there are a number of such reports on the 40/1.4 on photo.net)  
and I have gone through FOUR Epson R-D1s.
