afford it insist that it's not worth the money. Those who actually
buy it know better.

Please. Leica sells a about a 5 MP digital camera for over a thousand
bucks when the going price for everybody else is around $300. Also
Leica doesn't have nearly the features that everybody else does. No
way, no how can the quality of the pictures be worth 200% more on the
price. At some point you realize they are just screwing you because of
the name. Basic marketing.
