No apologies necessary, because I did not perceive any slight against Leica from you.

So I should have realised this before l commented on your post, and made it quite clear that l was making no slight against Leica users. So l apologise for not being aware you could be very sensitive towards any perceived slight or criticism towards the Leica brand and it's users.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-78896464137310440802017-04-28T15:53:57.038-05:002017-04-28T15:53:57.038-05:00I understood your initial comment perfectly, and I...I understood your initial comment perfectly, and I answered by agreeing that a camera, any camera, has nothing to do with a photographer's talent. But you obviously are not willing to concede that, with the constant barrage of criticism heaped on owners of Leica cameras, it is of interest to them to see that accomplished photographers indeed use Leica cameras. As such, the title about my post about Ernst Haas is a valid one, especially on a blog dedicated to Leica. The large number of positive responses obviously show that, with your exception, readers of my blog agree with me.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-36684791001032554402017-04-28T15:53:27.306-05:002017-04-28T15:53:27.306-05:00Vincent Phillips answered:

However, these days when the Leica by many of the nay-sayers is described as being only bought by doctors and lawyers, and not by valid photographers, it makes sense to point out that this isn't so, especially on a blog dedicated to Leica.
