Dominique, Are you suggesting I should buy such, as you say "foolishly" expensive, lens blindly, without even actually having held one in my hand together with the R8 body? This would be "foolish" and financially irresponsible behavior IMHO :-) Or maybe you're suggesting that in any event it would be foolish to spend so much money on any lens? I thought the task of any official Leica importer was to sell things. How can they expect to sell such very pricey items if they do not have at least ONE sample in the country? I do not think this is good management, if the result is that you will either not buy the item because you couldn't "test" it, or you would buy the item elsewhere, e.g. in Germany, without any commission for them :-) BTW I have a lot to complain about the Belgian importer, Masson-Draguet. I am sure that Leica would be able to sell more goods if there were a proper and reliable support in the country. Solms, are you listening?
