Hype can cause irrational thinking as in the idea that the value of something has no price limit.

Comparisons to Leica can justify the statement "A fool and his money are soon parted".

Sometimes it is justified, sometimes not.

The following caparisons have been made to Leica:

Minolta CL, Contax G2, Nikon FM3A, Mamiya 6, Mamiya 7, Nikon Coolpix A and

Ricoh GXIII.

At the Fuji hype price, I don't think it is justified. Buy one of the cameras above or buy a used Leica.
