leica dude.

G glass will be fine. the beercan and prime lines will be ok across the board too.

this camera looks way better than the canon and nikons, it looks like a camera and not a spaceship or whatever the hell nikon is going for. their design team just can't figure shit out.

it shoots slower (more like 5dmkii speeds) and other little crap I assume to shave the price down. So its slightly less powerful than the 900

a high end car has a premium because it is high end and has a higher level of appeal
same with apple
is a minute thing is wrong with an acer product like something is only offered with a glossy screen at a specific size, tough, fuck you, nobody cares. It is a bargain product.
if something is unsatisfactory with an apple product, they will fix it and make sure what they release will have a certain level of longevity. Sure sometimes the products fail, that is the nature of the beast, but apple will bend over backwards to fix it for you unless you are a huge dbag. Most other companies don't offer the same level of support in the tech sector.
apple behaves like a high end company as well, they do what they believe is the best thing, not what you outwardly believe you want. This is how the world of high end goods works. They don't aim to fix a problem you have as a peasant, they do whatever they can do well and if it fits what you need then great.

I wonder what his preference on blue or green is!

leica is more hipster than couture.

his brother has a t1i, he drools over high end slrs, like the sony a900 and nikon d3x

sony dslrs have never used compact flash as a sole memory source.

nobody, they used a legitimate design firm with real designers.
