Advertisement Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hi stunsworth, Take a look here Would you stand up for Leica?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
earleygallery Posted January 1, 2011 Share #42 Posted January 1, 2011 I still say that there's NO difference between the images/processing of the two cameras. If you disagree please offer photographic examples to prove it. Any Leica photographer won't be shooting jpegs anyway, so even if there was different firmware it wouldn't matter. Now that we know the difference in price is due to the software/warranty and lower volumes of Leica, can we all just accept that and let people make their own decisions!

ho_co Posted January 2, 2011 Share #43 Posted January 2, 2011 ... So, would you have said something? Reminds me of the scene in Howard Hawks' "The Big Sleep" where Marlowe gets beaten up by thugs. A weaselly little guy named Harry Jones turns up and helps Marlowe to his feet. Still dazed, Marlowe asks the guy, since he saw the attack, why didn't he interfere or at least call the police? Jonesy answers, "When a guy's playin' a hand, I let him play it. I'm no kibitzer." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 2, 2011 Share #44 Posted January 2, 2011 I saw something disappointing recently. I was at an authorized Leica dealer here in the U.S. when a customer came in with an older Leica and said they wanted to see the new D-Lux 5. The sales person showed them the new camera, and then immediately tried to steer them to an LX-5, saying it is the same camera. I wanted to say something, but businesses don't take kindly to customers disputing what their sales people say, so I kept my mouth shut. So, would you have said something? No. Since you were in a bazar and not in a forum romanum (ok, let's not think of the Life of Brian for a moment). The salesperson gave imo correct info. Maybe "they" arrived before you and declined to trade in for an M9 or an M8 in good shape. You cut short of the happy-end: who of you found something for Santa in that store? Printing some pics...a Noct? Anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
