Over the past 60+years I've owned and used four RF Leicas, several 35mm RF Canons and other brands, many Nikon SLR products, and other 35mm cameras. There was no inexplicable or mystical quality to the Leicas. Mine were superbly engineered and built, and durable. Other cameras could produce images comparable to the Leicas when used in comparable circumstances. It takes a rare and unbiased analysis to detect any difference. Some photographers get even better images from their SLR Nikons, Canons, and others because a RF camera is foreign to them. It's like farmers with their 4WD work trucks vs Ferarri drivers. Neither would benefit from swapping their vehicles.

well, farmers will look way cool on Ferrari :smile:

ic,

look at the shadowy , darker images under glow light , I mean with glow electric filament light.


Wow, this is a new high in terminology. I thought I've read them all (with lens "footprint" and "fingerprint" being the most ridiculous), but "Glow Electric Filament Light" BLOWS THE DOORS OFF everything until now.

Please tell me, is that filament electric glow light rendered differently with asph lenses? More electric? Less filamenty?

You do know your Leica Mini Zoom is actually a repackaged Vivitar made in Japan, right?
It is the Vivitar Series 1 500PZ Data Back Power Zoom.

So perhaps you should rename this thread "Why Vivitar, my view with new technical research"?

Or his Minolta 35-70mm zoom repackaged as a Leica.

I always knew that Minolta was Leica's mother! Thanks Umut!
