>>3596652I was talking about digital cameras in general here. At any film M you just send it in and get a new shutter(curtain), not cheap, but it keeps it going for another 10 year or more.
I'm not saying it's common for digital cameras to break after 15K actuations, but that includes Leicas as well. It's certainly not common, but it can happen.
>>3596665>I've bought, owned, and sold nearly 50 cameras of a dozen brands over the past 15 yearsI feel sorry that you had to own that many cameras. For me it was less than 10 until I got my Leica and I barely used anything else since then. As I mentioned earlier, I don't expect selling my Leica, but if I ever have to, I'm not only not losing money, but I certainly make a profit. Prices have nearly doubled since I got it.
>>3596670>how much would a skopar 35mm f2 cost me for example200-250€ for the ltm version, 280-320€ for the PII. The next better option is the Biogon 35/2, which can be had for 500+.
