I was examining a print from a shot taken with the 17-35 2.8 (zoomed to about 28mm) that should have been sharp through and through. The printer successfully showed why I'm probably gonna go Leica. On that note, I've been working through Cal's Camera in S. Cal. to try out an R8 and a few small lenses before I commit to switching. The local rep has supposedly said "no problem" but hasn't come through for more than a month now, despite reminders (through Cal's, who won't give me his number). My questions are; A) anybody know of a more reliable rep around southern California, and B) Is this a reflection of their committment to the working professional? Regards, Dave Yoder
