Its been my position for a few months now that M8 use will revitalize the
Viso. Or re visolize the Vito.

Right now there's a ton of them out there selling for practically nothing.
You buy one they throw in a bellows and a 65 just because they're sick of
looking at it.
Would be nice to think that in the end there'd not be enough to go around..
All the burgeoning Leica digital macro and long tele Viso enthusiasts with
everything in-between and that they'd have to reintroduce them. Make more
new. Or some third party guy (a great name for an entrepreneurial
enterprise) would come along and start cranking them out with CNC.
Computer Numerical Control, he said non acronymously.

My favorite companies seem to be involved with this processs. Our own Tom
A's One-Off Rapidwinder's and Softies.
The Kirk and Really Right Stuff people we were talking about over the
weakened.
Scotty INC.
Not really all that great stuff but for less money and what do you want egg
in your beer INC.
Better known as

Really Wrong Stuff.

But we wouldn't really go to those guys anyway. (stick to top of list)
