>>3832101The worst thing about the M5 is how far the viewfinder window is into the centre of the camera making your nose squish up against the back of the camera (and the fact that it takes mercury batteries), the CLE did the viewfinder placement right and IMO has the best viewfinder of any M camera. Best thing about the M5 is the shutter speed dial desu, the thing is still ugly as fuck tho.
>freaked out the same over the CL killing the M lineThey did not freak out over the CL/CLE killing the M line it was Leica themselves who freaked out, the CL/CLE was cheaper and eating into the sales of the M series. I guess Leica wanted to stay as a rich persons camera.
>their own lenses collapse into pieces if you give them a mean look.>things that never happenedThe M-Rokkors were fantastically made I've never heard any bitching about their build quality besides the M-Rokkor 28mm (which I owned and used) and was rightfully criticised with the whole white spot issue.
>pic related 28mm m-rokkorYour /pol/ is showing btw
