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.

I don't know about Leica in particular, but compare the image quality of
a 5MP camera with a decent lens with a $300 camera. Even if the $300
camera has a 10MP sensor, the 5MP camera with a full frame 35mm sensor
and decent lenses will look FAR superior, have much less noise
(particularly on long exposures). Megapixels is almost meaningless
unless you have the lens to back it up AND the sensor itself is large
(the typical sensor in a $300 camera will be smaller than your pinky
fingernail).

Then try one. You may be surprised.

See above.
