You seriously want to offer an opinion on camera manufacturers
without even knowing who Leica is?  Really....   ( :-O

FYI, Kyocera and Contax while incorporated maintain _completely_
different lines of manufacture.

You're right about Ricoh but again thier SLR equipment is
a completely different production network than anything
digital bearing thier name.

So at least you should know what you're talking about before
you say things like: "Do I need to say more?".

Maybe you should say less?!

Or not...  you might know something worth posting.  This
ain't it though.
