Hopefully, they will oblige us with a decent report on how an actual production model functions. Why do dealers not restock an expensive film based inventory? Its all about inventory turn and profit levels. $2000 U.S. in a Leica body that might sell in six months or 200 1GB cards that will turn in two or three months. Five percent margin on the Leica body versus twenty percent on the memory cards makes this a really easy decision for the camera store owner. If Leica is selling 100 DMR's a week at about $5000 U.S. then their balance sheet should look much better really soon. Just some random thoughts and comments.
