There is NO more enthusiastic a Leica nut immaginable. I share his excitement about the cost effective products coming out of Cosina. I can't imagine the Tom A I know being the faintest bit unethical. His enthusiasm and knowledge of all things to do with rangefinder cameras is a rich seam everybody should tap into. These products are marketed as lifestyle products using a famous brand in some countries, probably to get more sales. Fans of the old Voigtlander will obvoiusly see this as something of a disappointment but UNETHICAL? In a world where there are hundreds of millionaires who have all become rich from exploiting customers ignorance of computers? Not even close. cheers Frank
