Or she's the one who gets to leak it. On the 5mm and a 50mm, its our familiar 2.6 feet. The "75mm and 90mm with a minimum focus distance of 3 and 3.3 feet, respectively" I can't tell if I'm looking at built in focusing hoods or not. But they're made rather cutely. In a good way mainly. A tad less elegant perhaps than others. It could be very well they will be marketed a notch lower. In my memory its not common for Leica to leak stuff out so dribbly. You may find yourself adding "dribbly" to your dictionary I'm not sure if I just made it up or not. But its certainly the word for the occasion if you ask me.
