Woohoo! "The LEICA M8 Upgrade Program is designed to provide our customers with a long-term assurance of their investment, since you can always bring your camera up to date. We are presently investigating the possibility of further upgrade steps including the camera's complete digital section, even including the sensor itself." -----Original Message----- Subject: [Leica] M lens range changes and a new Leica website Leica has a rather different new site, incorporated ever so stylish stories, music (thankfully mutable) and elegant rich folks! If you don't like Flash sites, you aren't going to be happy. One item I have noticed so far is that predicted lens range changes are now shown. The Elmar M 2.8 50 is gone, as is the Summilux 75 and the Elmarit M 2.8 90. Those dang Summarits are taking over. Then we have Mr Lee reported in the UK press as strongly hinting regarding a full frame M8, possibly as an upgrade! If you have a single atom of speculation and enthusiasm in your body you have to be excited about that one. High time we had another thread of wild rumours, wish lists and probably moaning ;-) Cheers Geoff _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
