Luggers,
    In the last digest, a lot was said about the longevity of Leica
products.
    However, a couple of points were left out.
    Leica AG has always offered repair service for all its cameras. From the
eariliest model A to the most recent M7s and R9s.  This type of service is a
good sell point.
    Some of the distributorship, can not repair some of the older cameras,
such as Leica USA won't work on screw mount cameras, but Germany will.
    Assuming they survive, why wouldn't they continue this policy?
    As to the electronics, Leica is making their own circuit boards in
Portugal. So having parts should not be a problem.
Happy Snaps,
Sal
