I would like to put some photos up too but I have to investigate hosting. 

Hi Steven!

Don't bother to investigate web-hosting!

I wasn't going to make any announcement just yet, because things are not quite ready; but it would seem that within a few weeks, we will have our own, LRFlex On-Line Gallery- as a no-cost option!

Watch this space, as the officious announcement will be made here, soon!  :)


And, speaking of which, it is really encouraging that Leica would be
interested in support for this earlier model at this point in time.... Does
this mean spare parts for things that might eventually go out are still
available?  thanks


Leica, like Quad (audio) and a very few others, support almost everything. Some years ago, they gave up supporting LTM cameras, but Kindermann Canada bought Leica's entire supply of LTM parts and nearly everything is still available through them! I can't think of any other camera company (except Tom. Abrahamsson's RapidWinder.com) who support their gear for 40+ years after the last of a series is manufactured. Nikon, for example, will only guarantee parts for 5 years after the model (not series) is discontinued!

Because of this, if I'm going to put $2,500 into a top line body, it's got to last me a very long time, and I want to be able to get repair, should I need it! So, I use Leica.

Enjoy that R4!
