[LRflex] Re: R10 Speculation response. (also long)

Just got back from PhotoExpo  here in New York. I was distressed to
note that there was NOT  A SINGLE Leica R brochure at the stand. M
gear was the main attraction, while R gear was available, it was not
strongly featured. Based on my 5-10 minute stay at the stand there was
little or no interest in R gear. The Leica folks advised me not to
read too much into the lack of R brochures. My questions on the new
R10 and its mount were essentially deflected.

Also visited the CZ stand and had a look at the new CZ 28/2.0 Distagon
and 100 Macro in Nikon mount. The MTFs looked remarkable on the 100.
One could do a lot worse than a  full frame Nikon digital body with CZ
lenses. One dealer had a show special on the Canon 5D + 24-105 IS  for
2999, not sure how this compares with the regular price. Cannons line
up of prime tele lenses , they had the new 200/2.0 IS on display,
looked awsome.
