My dealer has a 20-35 f/2.8 Nikkor in stock now, at $1700. He also stocks
Leica. And since Christmas he's sold more of this one Nikkor  -- at $1700
each -- than all Leica lenses combined.

And what does that suggest. And, by the way, one can purchase Nikkor glass
used just as one can purchase Leica. You may be right about the two zooms,
but for $1300 you can certainly get a virtually new 80-200 2.8 AF, new
version, and, if you're lucky, also get the 35-70 2.8 AF.
