Regarding the frequent question about when the R8 motor winder would be
available...

The latest word from the Black Forest Gremlins is "February..."

At least this is what Leica USA is telling its dealers...according to my
dealer, Reimers Photo, here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA...

So, I guess that some of us will be developing stronger thumb muscles...and
better timing to catch "peak" moments.  Actually, in the long run these
measures might make us use a lot less film, and still make better
pictures...

Actually...not too shabby a prospect.  And, what-the-heck-else can ya' do
about it?

Cordially,
