It is not a rangefinder, and I could not bring myself to purchase one but it is 
an intriguing device.

My take on the Df is that it's just marketing fluff.  I see nothing compelling 
about this
camera and - if actually cared about digital - my preference would be a D800.

I doubt Leica photography is dead, per se.  Out of reach for us poor mortals, 
yes.  (Really $4,000.00 for a camera body??)
However, there is some hope for the range finder via Voightlander/Bessa, former 
soviet union (zorki), and others.
The real issue is the transition from analog to digital.  If only some clever 
group could come up with a simple, as in f-stop // shutter speed only, digital, 
with a digital storage, rather than film???? At a fair price? This could be 
similar to the transition from glass plate negatives to film.  Only from film 
to pixel.  Not necessarily a telephone, but a camera that can swap glass?
crazy, No?
Be well and happy Purim.

be well
