OK you're elected as president by my unanimously vote. >New thread on the Leica User Forum discussing rumoured production changes >with some lenses becoming available only by special order. Any bets on which models will fade away? These who sell less. For instance the 90/2.8 Elmarit since the 90/2.5 Summarit will be faster and more affordable. Also the 75/1.4mm could see hard times coming up. Something fast below 28mm should happen. 24/2 Summicron or so. A digital CL kind M-mount or fixed lens compact camera should also happen.
