It is clear that the R-10 is long way form being released to the market. I have had private exchanges with several Leica figures who would know more; all were pessimistic One of them made a key observation: if indeed the R-10 and accessories were scheduled to go on sale soon, and compatibility with older lenses was to be a selling point, why dump all remaining stocks of older R lenses on eBay? To this person it was a sign that the R system in its current form is dead. ------ Unsubscribe or change to/from Digest Mode at: http://www.lrflex.furnfeather.net/ Archives are at: //www.freelists.org/archives/leicareflex/
