Leica is not in trouble, and people who know cameras enough to want Leica know they are great, though the only way they'll really know is to use them. A restoring of the loaner program might do it. Sorry for the shouting, but let's get real here. Leica is healthier than any other camera company out there. They sell small numbers because they choose to. Some of you ideas have merit, others not. Move back to Wetzlar? Forget it. A couple of people having problems with lens coatings and 4 to 6 week repair turn arounds are not a trend. First of all, Nikon and Canon are just as slow, and their repairs are even more expensive for the labor than Leicas. The world is not ending. Leica is healthy. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch He, who will not reason, is a bigot; he, who cannot, is a fool; and he, who dares not, is a slave.
