If you don't like where they are made don't buy one. Lets talk about how good/bad they perform or something besides a thing we have no control over. On that subject: I sure like my 90 Elamrit M. Small, light, sharp. Really nice lens. Smooth focusing, excellent images. Just what I expect from Leica. Does anyone know why the 90s focus to 1 meter and the 75 and smaller focus to .7 meter? I do wish my 90 would go closer. I am tempted by the 90APO just because I used the R 100 APO Macro some and its incredible. Who knows, I might buy a 90APO some day after its owner discovers its not German and I can buy it cheap! Any disgruntled 90 APO ASPH owners want to sell me your crappy Canadian lens for $ 1000.00 ? I'm buying all I can find at that price. :) Henry
