>>3103675Ernst Haas shot Nikon as well as Leicaflex. I wouldn't call that Leica-fagging as much as "choosing to shoot a quality camera", because you're not a brokeass and you use it every day.
Also, it's really only in the modern age of digital rot that a Leica is an extravagance; even if your M3 cost $10k equivalent (it didn't), you could expect to be shooting it for the next 40 years with the occasional bill for servicing.
Today, your 10k Leica will be deprecated in 2 years, and can be matched for IQ by a 4 year old $500 Sony.
>and in 4 years the sensor will be corroded to shitAnyone who's been shooting for more than 5 minutes knows that the cost of gear is just something you allow for, and that it's more about personal preference than anything else at all.
