1) Leica adjusting to the demands of the marketplace

Stephen, I agree 100%.  And I would never suggest that it is not a good
idea....after all, making $$$ is the name of the game......

But only of there is continued support of the manufacture of LTM Lenses....
the way it was received by me from F+G was that this was a 1 shot, and you
have  96 (?) hours to place your orders or else hold your piece forever.
Never to be repeated offer.....

Do I read this wrong?  Do I not have information that this will be an
ongoing proposition?  Is this an experiment?

Frank, still seeing this as instant collectibles, and hoping otherwise.

?????  Maybe the M7/8/9 or M10 will be LTM ?????  Now wouldn't that be a
surprise?
