Inspiration, Q&A
I had an opportunity to handle a Nikon D810, a Pentax 645Z, and a Sony A7RII yesterday.
Previously, I’ve owned a D800E, a 645D, and an A7s, so I was familiar — in a general sense — with each manufacturer’s offerings.
Ultimately, I had abandoned all of those last generation models, for one reason or another.
Care to guess which one of the latest generation offerings I found the most desirable? The least?

The new Leica SL (Sony-Like).

Ouch. This might actually kill the company.
Is there anybody left at Leica doing “reality checks” during company meetings?
—Peter.
