My inventory at the time was two and Leica also sent one to use. I am not a professional photographer, so in order for me to "test" the lenses I went around town and stayed in the same position with the same exposure, most of the time wide-open, and made the three exposures. I had them developed and passed the pictures around. The comments were all positive. Maybe they were just being nice to me, who knows. Maybe Tom A. will see the post and comment from a more technical viewpoint. The Tri-Elmar is in stock at most dealers and is $2295. USD I provide a choice of the following with purchase: One year LHSA membership or a Metz 20 strobe. In the US the choice also includes free shipping. Enjoy your trip.
