Horses for courses - I was gobsmacked by the engineering and the results that I see on Steve Huffs site.
It's ironic IMHO that many audiophiles who will readily spend squillions of dollars on audio electronics with fancy cases, a mythical PR story about the development and 'ground breaking technology inside', and yet, even where controlled testing reveals them to have no better sonic results than vastly cheaper mainstream products, will still prefer the fancy case, and hyped up expensive 'audiophile item', citing 'superior sound'.
Yet, when confronted with the same marketing concept of a camera, cry foul, overpriced, poor value etc.
To a large degree it's all about subjective choice in HiFi or Cameras, and usually we all like different things for different reasons.
Leica glass has always had a rep of being without peer in the 35mm camera field, and certainly that has always been born out to some degree in the 'look' of the photographic results.
I see that 'look' on Steve Huffs pics with the new 'T' Leica, and I love the idea of a compact camera with that sort of picture quality available, and an interface that does to cameras, what the iPhone did to smart phones.
Add in the hewn from solid MacBook Pro build quality, and I'll be very surprised if it doesn't sell exceptionally well.
Apart from being APS-C sensor, if it was FF and I had the $$'s, I'd have one in a heartbeat.
But then, I just like shiny bling boxes.... like audiophile kit then...
