If the euro rise or fall it has not effect over gas out of the euro zone, also you're not buying leica stuff in euros, you're buying it in USD in a price already set by Leica. IMHO It will be extremely optimist thinking about a price reductions of any good due currency fluctuations only. Even more if there is into a reasonable +-0.2 up or down the parity [either side] which seems the natural playground of those currencies.
