Hi, Keith, Hmmm... I guess I was thinking of rangefinders only. The C1 kind of blows my little theory out of the water, eh? <g>
The "history" that I recounted is what I suspect the Leica folks think, not necessarily what I think. I do think, however, that were it not for the Bessa, Leica might have done well to introduce an entry level rangefinder, but they've missed their chance, now. Market's too small to support another Bessa, methinks. -frank Keith Whaley wrote: > > > In which case, why put their name on the C1? > That sure isn't a Leica either!
