Thanks Neal. 
The ZI marketing is an interesting area. The clamp down on the "grey market"
imports had an unfortunate side effect of reducing the options where the
official distributor is not representing as widely (or in our case, at all!)
In the US of A, Stephen Gandy's exclusion meant the loss of a valuable
resource both for info and possible purchase. The Australian situation
appears to parallel this, with the Voigtlander/Cosina dealer abandoning
their ZI stockholdings. These folks are completely committed and enthusiast
film camera supporters so that is a shame. My Leica dealer had one or two
items, but was unable to source any further stock last time I asked. That
dealer has good used Leica stocks but is about 1000 miles each way so is a
bit of a commute. 
If you have a web presence, maybe you could let me know off list?
Cheers
Hoppy

Hoppy,

If you are interested in any of the Zeiss lenses let me know, we will be
stocking several of them and we will ship to OZ.  Although you can't get
hands on, I'll be glad to answer any questions you may have about them. BTW
their view finders are beautiful, much nicer than Leica's.

Neal
