    You end up with sample images like in this preview of the new M11 Leica monochrome. Talk about drab.

    I'd expect at least some contrasty/sharper shots that grab me by the
    short and curlies and make me cash in a GIC for one ...

    Very niche market.

    I'd rather an Inspire 3 from DJI. But I'd have to cash in a larger GIC. https://www.dji.com/ca/inspire-3

    Yes, because we know that no one has ever produced a dynamic black and white image...

    Joke, relating to full chromatic range in comparison to black/gray/white.
