Have you ever wondered what pictures look like from a camera that costs more than many cars? I have. I know there are a lot of professionals out there that view DSLRs like the Canon 5D and Nikon D700 as entry-level because they have flashes that cost more than those cameras. Well, DPReview got a hold of the $26,000 Leica S2 and just posted some sample pictures, but don’t expect to be blown away.

Here’s the thing. I don’t see anything special. I mean, they are good photos and maybe I don’t know what to look for, but some of them look like they could have been taken with a $200 pocket camera. Definitely don’t take my word for it though. Click over to dpreview for the full res shots, but I think I’ll stick with a Nikon for a while.
