[Leica] Summarit press release

YES
And they will take my asph lenses when they prise them from my focus tab 
pushing, f2 setting fingers.
Might have to get some of those tiny snub-nose f2.5 special calibre new 
designs as well. So they don't make a bulge in my tuxedo
when on assignment.

I think Leica will remain in the premium market the lower end just being the
slower glass. They're not going to compete  against Cosina and Zeiss made in
Japan and others who've got the mass market thing down and are set up to do
it.

Leica needs to continue to represent quality nonpareil par excell?nce.
And not cheapen the marque as they say.
