The Millennium camera is based on the LHSA black paint camera. I have been working on this project for close to three years, through various twists, turns and roadblocks along the way as well as some changes in management at Leica Solms. Leica stole a bit of our thunder by coming out with their version first. Anyway, there are some differences. First off, the Millennium has a rewind knob ala the M2/M3 and the LHSA has a crank. Millennium camera limited to 2,000 units, the LHSA camera only limited to the number subscribed. LHSA available in .72 or .85. LHSA dot will be black, not red. Leica script engraved on top, as well as "LEICA CAMERA AG, SOLMS GERMANY'. This will be the first Leica camera engraved Solms! Deliveries should start in March 2000. I'll keep you posted. Bill Rosauer
