Mike- there are 2 of them advertised in the Tamarkin NY adv of the 
July, 2005 magazine issue. They are about $1000 each. Listed under 
Leica SLR Accessories in the third page of the magazine. Tamarkin phone 
number is 800-289-5342. Good luck- I've got one that I bought from a 
friend about 6-7 years ago. It's a great performer! Stasys
