[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I got a memo from Leica yesterday announcing the following. I thought it might be of interest. 1: Leica is going to make a new APS camera called the C11. It sounds a lot like the C1, but "mini." No photos of it yet. 2: Leica is going to re-badge the Fuji 4700 and call it the Digilux 4.3. The 4.3 is for 4.3 million pixels (yes, interpolated). They have a close up thingy-magingy that they will soon introduce as well for it. Digicopy will still be around too. 3: rebates are really ending on Aug 31st and no intentions of new rebates are related. I guess this means that Leica cameras and lenses will on the whole be $150 more than they are now. (in some cases prices may have dropped to compensate though.) The new binocular rebates stay. OK, that is the news for now... later, Rich The Photo Village, Inc. 212-398-0402
