Agreed - not sure I understand their philosophy, I thought Leica is in the business of making first class photographic equipment, actually selling it, and, "oh my God", making a profit. Surely, unless there is an ulterior motive, such as making sure there is a built in shortage, in which case the manufacturer usually ups the price, it would be prudent to increase production of any item for which there is such demand. Seems Leica is being run by a bunch of tired old men - make way, make way, for some of us who are old in years, but not in spirit - Hugh Thompson
