I'm, on my 4th one. They don't last as long as a Leica real camera- but they don't cost quite as much. The biggest camera store here in LA has a 2 day sale where you can get a new panasonic lumix camera- 4x zoom and 12 megapixels for $99. They are good for about 1500 frames before they suck up lint from the lens going in and out of the body. Also- Herr Daniel told me (as I have written in the past) that there were 2500 DMR's produced. With a battery for the unit- I'm good for another 6 years. Stasys, from the left bank.
