Well, that's exactly it. If I owned a Leica I would probably keep it on
the shelf and look at it, occasionally hold it. It is a joy to hold and
behold. For photography in the rain I would use my Zorki, which I don't
mind if it falls or gets wet!

Actually many cameras SURPASS Leicas in picture quality, starting with
Rolleis.
