Leica makes great cameras, unfortunately as you said over priced... I never touched one of their digital ones, but I was furtunate enough to have a film one for a school project before going to university. The camera was loaned to my dad, who was generous enough to allow me to use it. It was great, really was. It kind of felt better than the Nikon F4 I usually got, but not that much better to justify the price.

One thing I kind of dream about so is some Zeiss glass. Not that I'll ever be able to justify it so! Besides, I have developed a weakness for old Nikkor manual focus lenses.

If I had a Leica so, I'd never trade it in for something else neither! Some things you just don't do!
