Hmmm.. now can have personalised Leicas. Well that's one way to keep the Leica brand differentiated in the market.

can only ;p cos the basic option (of either M7 or MP) is already S$6600 (!!)

Ya not much of a choice for Leica as a company. Their costs are high as they do focus on getting the best results with the smallest lens design possible. But that means the sell price will be high too. So market would be for the enthusiasts and those who do appreciate high quality. However u look at it Leicas especially the M series are keepers.

Sure or not?! M7 or MP cost S$6600? Where do you got this figure from? :dunno:
If I am not wrong, it is around S$4000 plus only.

I think they can personalise Leica M camera becoz those cameras are hand-asembled unlike other makes.

My first impression was that: Leica must be mad!! what "à la carte"? more like " a la mak" :bsmilie:


Then again, come to think of it, the writings are already on the wall, what else could they do? Just see how long they took to come up with that monster digital back for R? Their workers must be darn free these days
