>>3460758>How would anyone here know?Several people here own Leicas. Exif related.
>>3460748>Are Leicas worth the insane price tag?Ehhhhh. Objectively, no, they aren't. If you shoot with genuine Leica lenses, there are some (subjective) image quality advantages, but you can also shoot those Leica lenses on something like an A7-series for much less money and a much higher-spec camera.
That being said, the real advantage to a Leica is that it makes you shoot *differently*. Shooting from eye-level with through-the-lens framing and autofocus is standard. It's what everyone does. Shooting with an offset viewfinder with a little bit of slop in the parallax, where you can't see your depth of field until you get the shot, and where you have to manually focus with a rangefinder mechanism (or, preferably, zone-focus), all of that leads to a very different shooting experience, and that different shooting experience gives you different photos from anyone else. There's no photo you CAN take with a Leica that you CAN'T take with some other camera, but there are a lot of photos that you WILL take with a Leica that you WOULDN'T take with another camera. When everyone is shooting one way and you shoot a different way, it will make your photos stand out from everyone else's.
So is it objectively worth the price? No. But subjectively? Maybe, if you value that different shooting experience and the unique photos you'll get with it.
(Note that this only applies to their rangefinders. Everything else they sell will pretty much give you exactly the same experience and images as cameras costing vastly less, so you're just paying extra for the red dot prestige and nothing else.)
