Well said Georg.

 

It's ironic, there's the elitist argument of being a professional photographer used in the same sentence to denigrate those who are accused of being elitist by using a Leica.

 

I'm neither a dentist nor a lawyer but I enjoy the M8 and can afford it. I fail to see why I should apologize for that.

Veternarians are basically farmers assistants or failed GP's and are therefore not welcome at all. We hate veternarians ;-)

 

You are professional or rich or both - otherwise we will decide not to take any notice of you. Amateaurs are even worse of course.

Did you have to pay their ridiculous 15% restocking fee?

 

Helene

 

No, actually I had my sales manager buy one for me in Japan where they're made, and then had him return it on his next trip over. There was no restocking fee. I refuse to buy anything from a place that has restocking fees. I don't consider it ethical let alone intelligent to stick my thumb in a customer's eye and I won't give my business to anybody who tries it on me.

I wonder how veterinarians who do photography and use Leicas are regarded.

 

Somewhere I have a book on bird photography written by a guy named Webber who is (or was) a veterinarian, and a lot of his photos he said were done with a Leicaflex. Then later on as he got older he couldn't see how to focus it and switched to Canon and credited that with extending his shooting career. I don't know if he's still living or if the book is still in print.

Don't they know a little watered down bleach, some sandpaper and a scrub brush will give them the same look without paying you extra?

 

They might but it would have been too much work ;) but more likely they make much more money in that time.than they would have in scrubbing the poor bag.
