Re: Leica M11-P as a Travel Camera: A Love–Hate Experience
Leica is a small company with a market share in alignment with the exclusive, luxury, business model that it is operating under. What to the number of users have to do with this. The important thing is that it does have a loyal user base. It has a well respected heritage in the industry. Leica's products are generally very high quality, performing at the top of the industry in build quality and optically. Some of it's products set the industry benchmarks. Leica fills a viable niche in the camera industry.
From a financial perspective Leica is also very successful. It was bought in a distress situation by current management. It has been very profitable for them, and is now in process for at least a partial sale with a Billion Dollar plus valuation. How many of you armchair experts can say that about your enterprises? Not many I am guessing.
