I discussed have this lens made by Leica (in silver) with Stefan Daniel a 
couple of years back. At that time Leica was looking for a minimum order of 
300 lenses. Expected delivery times then were rather long.

Has Leica changed their minimum number requirement and expected delivery 
times since then?

Regards,

Greg
