Speaking Frankly
Leica need to stop building cameras that cater to a visual design parameter that was started in the twenties and start building cameras that just plain perform at a level that at least matches their opposition.
Just my opinion of course ... no doubt a lot of people think this weird retro styling is just fab! 🙄
If you wait long enough, what was old style is now...retro style.
Sticking with a look at one's prime is nothing new. Many women still pluck their eyebrows pencil thin, or many men kept their Elvis sideburns.
Leica's head is in the past brought screaming into the present. Coping with the future will need a serious lobotomy.
Trading on one's name is far easier...
