i wish !!

the nikon 20-35 f2.8 is $1600 and there's a waiting list......(it's a
fabulous lens, well worth the wait)...

My dealer has a 20-35 f/2.8 Nikkor in stock now, at $1700. He also stocks
Leica. And since Christmas he's sold more of this one Nikkor  -- at $1700
each -- than all Leica lenses combined.
