Hi BOB
You like the Leica and it seems that you do not like AF cameras.
If Leica would sell a M AF Camera - with the same quality lens - many
M owner would probably buy it - AF is interesting as you get older and
focusing becomes harder.
Every instrument of precision and quality can be improved . A Leica is a
Leica untill proven otherwise.
I am for a M AF camera as long as the quality of the lens is kept to a high
standart.
How about the quality of the Zeiss lens on the G2.
