In the U.S., Passport is for M bodies and lenses, and R bodies and lenses, for three years. Certain binoculars carry a Lifetime Sport Optics Protection Plan as well. I think we are seeing that all Leica USA products are covered by 1) the international warranty, and for those that qualify, 2) the Passport Protection Plan.

I'm pretty sure that the passport is available for bodies AND lenses. Nothing else. My 3E has a passport warranty.

Passport/USA is ONLY available for bodies, as far as camera gear goes I believe. I have NEVER seen anything but the International Warranty cards with lenses, motor drive, flash. If anyone has seen differently, that Passport is available for other than bodies, I'd be interested to know. BTW, did you get your warranty card stamped and signed ;-) Austin - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html > - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
