Ted, Good message. Here's a thought that I had earlier today, after reading all of the e-mails from Leica about their financial woes. Do you think that Mr. Kurabyashi of Voightlander/Cosina fame may see the outright acquisition of Leica a possibility? I mean look at the Epson Digital RF, AKA Bessa R3? It has to be wound with the thumb between shots! The Bessa R2 with its "M" lens mount and all of the very nice LSM/Voightlander glass available today. It's an interesting thought. Art
