You appear to be describing the standard Leica International Warranty booklet that Solms may be referring to as a Warranty passport. This is not the same as the additional warranty "passport" that Leica USA (and now Canada and apparently UK) provide as an additional service to their customers. This special passport is a warranty that is basically an insurance policy against any damage that might occur to the camera or lens. The standard International Warranty does not provide this kind of coverage. Dan C. At 12:08 PM 19-05-00 +0200, Javad Fatemi wrote: >Simon, > >you're right. I have talked to the people in Solms.
