For what it's worth, Rob, although I completely concur with the
thoughts of others on this Leica-centric individual, he *still*
may be a good teacher. I've had good teachers on many topics who
have their own indiosyncracies or philosophical differences that
I just choose not to take with me. He *may* be a good photographer,
and *may* be a good teacher, with this odd penchant for
Leica-fetishism and supply-pedantry (which may bode well for you
when you make your own decisions in your own time about just how
pedantic to be). You may find that the other teacher has no such
equipment-focus, but couldn't teach a fish to swim. It's not what
they think of your equipment, but what you take away from the class
that matters.
You know your Zuikos take fine pictures, and, in then end,
you're doing the class for you and not for him (just as long as
he doesn't fail you for using Zuiko-glass <g>)
