The best Senosr in the Industry is Fuji's hands down. However the body and the lenses are from Nikon.

So Sony might make a great camera for the enthuiast or even an amateur, but the market is between Canon and Nikon.

Anyway like I said it has to do very little with the camera body...lenses are way more important then the body...


Leica??? Thats a throw back to 40 years ago when photojournalists used them....go check what photojournalists use now most of them are using a Nikon D2hs or a 200d or a Canon 40d or 5d...
Well, to go along with what you said, Leica makes exceptional lenses, which is really what they are bringing to the table again. Leica has only recently entered into the market, btw, so you can't compare their share to canon or nikon. Market share isn't always a good indication of quality, it's typically a better representation of perceived value.
At $5600 I'm not surpised that there aren't many people walking around with a Leica. Oh, and the navy photo journalists are starting to use Leica again, btw.
