Dan Cardish,

Let me state very clearly, buying Leica glass is quite
expensive relative to my available $ ;-( ! I've sacrificed
a great deal to buy an optic like the 70-180 apo.

It's very true that Leica pricing is getting close to 
being too exorbitant ( on some lenses ); however,
I've almost completed my R system....whew ;-)!

In fact, if & when they release a R 90 f2 apo, I'll
have to trade in current R Leica glass to get it.

Granted it's an obsession....all LUGers have got it ;-)!
