Taking pictures, and my own thinking, rather than bitching and moaning
about the death of a product that has been dead for several years.
And if you want to pull that old "Real photographers use Hassy",
horse****e, I think the "Collect all the new fruit flavour Blads" marketing
indicates that the company has attmitted they are in the same boat as Leica.
Serious photographers are not interested in the things or their whoop-di-do
Zeiss lenses. Better equipment is available for a fraction of the price from
Japan. In the camera market - Zeiss is a corpse. Cover it over before it
stinks, boys.

Tony, you are having serious issues with things that are all of your own
making.
What happened to you?

There are indeed many serious photographers who don't give a damn about what
brand lens they use.
Many of them happen to have Zeiss lenses on their cameras.

So what? If they don't care, why do you?
Why does that turn you into a first rate cretin?

It's clearly time you stopped pretending you are "taking pictures", and
start doing some serious thinking about what you are all about.
Good luck.
