Well, it does give shooting from the hips a different connotation!

Surely it doesn't beat the Nikon logo.

Wow ... I'm beginning to suspect that someone with a Nikon beat you up and stole your lunch money when you were a little photographer!

Mention of Leica = ok
Mention of Nikon = psychological issue
Of course!

If there are black dots sold why couldn't be black stripes, too?

It's funny! With all this talk of the red Nikon stripe I just realised I've never really noticed it ... I just had to get my D700 out of the cupboard for a looksee!
It is pretty stupid!

Nothing like a good, unused camera in mint shape for an under-market price.

That site seems to be localised based on gepgraphical location.
I'm getting a Dutch-written page with a MSRP of EUR 349 (!) and a discount price of EUR 199 (!) for that kit.
What's the going price in other countries? Not that I'm gonna get it, but I'm wondering nonetheless

Who in the right mind would buy that for $249?
The metal-looking logo on the back is cool, though.

Oh wow, thats almost half as exquisite as my original Leica MP that I had refinished with rare (extinct) lizard skin, with 24k gold Ls placed over the logos.
