If you read the first line of the press release, it is obvious. To tickle your well known prejudices further, they are being made in Japan. Let me see, in the last couple of days, you have commented (as far as I can remember) on the Leica M9, Fuji X-Pro 1, 300mm VR lenses and now Zeiss lenses without reading the messages/articles properly and refusing to comprehend what the original authors were trying to say. Therefore, IMHO, your comments on these topics are of no value to anyone but yourself!
