Well, the Teutonic puffery is is full bloom:

"The speed settings of ISO 160 through to 2500 permit pictures with a 
greater wealth of detail than can be achieved with analog film."

     - Leica press release on the M8.

"2. Those who have used the camera extensively have achieved photos with 
stunning details, previously not achievable on anything smaller than 
medium format.

3. Today films are available with much higher performance than digital 
sensors."

   - *Dr. Winfried Scherle*, Vice-President and general manager in the 
Camera Lens Division of Carl Zeiss AG on the new Zeiss Ikon rangefinder 
camera and lenses.

Don't invite these two guys to the same party....
