@mattblaze I’m indifferent to the tone of their marketing, it does seem to encourage a portion of owners to be very quick to assert variations on “if one cares about photography, one owns an M.”The kit costing so much seems to add onto it; if I had a nickel for every M review that has insisted real photographers don’t need autofocus I might be able to afford one.

    @rodgerd so much this. Leica kool-aid drinlers are insufferable.

    @mattblaze I was given a good biography of Henri Cartier-Bresson five or so years back, and the difference between "how Cartier-Bresson is fetishised by a certain sort of rangefinder fan" and his actual life gave me whiplash.
