The following applies only to film Leica M:
>1. What’s been your experience with Leica cameras?
Well crafted tools.
>2. For those of you who’ve owned one, did the camera impact your photos or your experience of taking photos?
Of course the photos didn't get any better, but the camera is a joy to use and I always take it with me when I leave the house.
>3. What’s one thing people should know about owning and using a Leica?
You don't magically take better photos with a Leica. Whenever some mechanical part breaks, you can get it repaired.
>4. What was the buying experience like? Was it worth the (presumed) investment?
If you plan buying a Leica, I suggest to do some research and get the model that fits your needs. A Leica isn't a camera for beginners and you should know how to use your tool and which focal length you prefer - not all Leicas cover all focal lengths. Personally, I'd say mine was worth it and I enjoy using it more than any other camera I owned before.
