What is the Correct Noun for Three or More Leica's?

[wintoid]

Me likey (leicii?)

 

[aizan]

A conspicuousness. 😀

 

[lynnb]

For three, it's a Troika of Leicas

 

[Ken Davis]

A Treasure!

 

[wpb]

Different types of items, an arsenal. "He had an arsenal of Leicas in the camera bag." (You are "shooting" them, I hope)

Two of the same type of items, a brace. "A brace of Summicrons were in the display case, one chrome and one black."

 

[KoNickon]

A couple of folks have suggested "An embarrassment of Leicas" -- I think there's a French expression, "Un embarras de richesse" -- an embarrassment of riches. Same idea!

I had thought of "a surfeit of Leicas," "a fetish of Leicas," or (for the collectors, not users) "a vitrine of Leicas."

 

[David Hughes]

For three, it's a Troika of Leicas

Not, of course, to be confused with a triplet...

Treica 😎🙄😉 (needed ten characters)

 

[d_c]

If they were mine they would be an overdraft.

I was going to say 'mortage' but I think 'an overdraft of Leicas' rolls off the tongue better.

 

[aizan]

A privilege of Leicas.

 

[lxmike]

A Dentist of Leicas?

I like this, so clever🙂

 

[dourbalistar]

If you have expensive collectible models, a vault of Leicas. If you have a range of different models, a portfolio of Leicas.

 

[KoNickon]

I like this, so clever🙂

I don't get it -- "A dentist of Leicas"? I guess I'm thick.

 

[Jamespics]

A fortune of Leicas!

They cost a fortune and you are fortunate to own them

 

[Darthfeeble]

A conspicuousness. 😀

A Conspicuity! Has a better ring to it.

 

[markjwyatt]

For three, it's a Troika of Leicas

Missed this. I said Treica. Wouldn't a Troika be three Kievs (or FEds/Zorkis, etc.)?

 

[Pál_K]

For someone who has a few not-so-special M bodies: a dot of Leicas

 

[pyeh]

Two Leicas and you would be a menage. Three Leicas and you would make it a party.

 

[lynnb]

You're right...

 

[Malcolm M]

I was tempted to suggest "Divorce" or "Foreclosure" but are Leicas really that expensive? Save on 3 or 4 years of smartphone charges and you could buy an M2 instead, which you will own for ever, rather than subsidising Beardy Branson's next villa on Mustique. And just think what you could buy if you stopped eating, gas and electricity....
