>>3681424>the images taken with them look more like something from a $500 cameraTo be fair, the images taken with a medium format digital look like something from a $500 camera unless you're looking really close at a really big print, too. $500 cameras have just gotten really good over the years.
But yeah, don't buy Leica for any image quality advantage, and obviously don't buy Leica for a feature advantage per se. Buy it because you want that more primitive shooting style.
(And don't buy one new; wait for some rich dentist to lose his practice because he was groping patients while they were gassed up and now he needs to sell his pristine, never-used collection)
