i stand corrected, if they contract out to casio, there is a chance,
even cosina , an oem company, is late rolling stuff out and i heard a
lot of qc issues with the zeiss cameras.


even though i had one of the first dmr that landed in us and i am
happy with it, i think it is the end of the line for R unless they
follow zeiss and roll out lenses for other mounts as we have discussed
many many times
