Subject: [Leica] first hint on new M-lenses to come
From: Christer Almqvist <chris@almqvist.net>

Today it's Tuesday and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung FAZ appears 
with its Technic and Motor supplement. There is a short article about 
the end of the M6 series and the 999 Special Edition. The last 
sentence of the article reads (more or less) as follows:

This departure (to modern goals) is not only for the M7 but also for 
other products: with regard to lenses for the M-line a few things are 
said to be in  preparation.

Here is the original text as some of you may want to weigh every word 
on a gold scale and  perhaps somebody can do a better translation for 
the rest of us:

Dieser Aufbruch zu neuen Zielen im Leica M System soll aber nicht nur 
in der M7 bestehen, sondern sich in weiteren neuen Produkten 
niederschlagen: Bei den Objektiven zur M-Serie sei einiges in 
Vorbereitung.

For those of you who do not know this; FAZ is among the most serious 
and factual of the German newspapers.
