Leica Event, May 10 Starts....

I think this is a good move. I hope for lots of people lusting for this M9-M so that there are more normal used M9 on the market.
 
That new Leica 50 mm must therefore make images that are 40 times nicer than my $200 Nikon 50/f1.8 ? :rolleyes:

Actually I am jealous of the folks who can drop that much money on a lens, but I can still make fun of them, can't I ?
 
Now I'm really glad I sprung for the XP1

Ditto. Having bought my X-Pro1 only a few days before this event, I thought I was asking to be made to regret it (daydream thoughts of a $2k Leica CL Digital - HA!).

What's doubly annoying is these new products are so expensive, they sit above the existing lines. So instead of (as we see with most digital photography gear) pushing prices of older gear down, they are going to almost pull the prices up (suddenly previous generation summicrons looks like bargains)!

The new 50mm Summicron is more expensive than the 21mm Summilux.... that sort of defines crazy, to me. And I have irrational feelings about Leica....
