Some times, but not often. My CL is black, small and stealthy!
The other week I stumbled upon a photographer with a digital Canon SLR with macro ringflash and everything, taking photos of some chefs posing outside a resturant. I took a picture of the event and the photographer turns around, looks at me, then my camera and says:
- Now he is doing it THE REAL way!
Speaking of real, the other day when setting up a Hasselblad to take a shot of a bridge with the train going under it a guy walking past tells his friend.
- Look! He is using a real camera!
Film is real, digital is fake!

On a recent extended trip around SE Asia with a couple of Ms I found that no other tourist commented upon it but many of the local tour guides and tuk-tuk drivers I used did - most weren't quite sure what it was but once I said it was a Leica the common response was "ooh, a Leica - now that's a proper camera!". They were often knowledgeable about the high quality of the lenses too.
