Subject: [Leica] R7 and Summilux-R 50mm/f1.4 for US$1000 too good to be true?

Hi All,

I've read that there is a *new* 50mm/f1.4. A local shop has the R7 and
Summilux-R 50mm for around US$1000, which seems like a cheap deal. The
serial number on the lens is 338xxxx. I was wondering if this is the latest
model. I'm sure it's a good lens, regardless :-)

Both body and lens have boxes/manuals and are rated 9/10 by the shop.

Curious as to your thoughts...

cheers
Stuart
