Where did this information show up? Do we really expect a decent answer from L
management? The CEO changed recently did it not? If so, anyone know his take
on the Leica camera business? Meaning cameras as tools or jewelry? I recently
visited a Leica Boutique and found it was one stop short of a fashion boutique;
all was needed was a few Hermes ties and shirts and maybe a Rolex or two in the
glass cabinet where the M9 was displayed in the middle of the showroom. All
this with leather cases and A&A leather camera straps displayed about to
accessorize with. (There was a mirror on the glass counter too; I kid you not).
But the real question is are there reflex shooters on the l-camera-forum
that'll
ask that question.
