LUGers,

What I'm really missing for the R8 is:

- - A Metz flash cobra like.
They have a good base now with the new Metz AF40-4.
<http://www.metz.de/mecablitz/eng/produkte/40af-4.htm>
What about a Leica SF 36 based on it.
SF36 because Leica is more honest about guide numbers.

I'm not a fan of the 40MZ family.

- - A new Apo-Extender X 1,4 compatible with lenses like the
new Apo 180/2,8 or the 100/2,8, 35-70/4, 80-200/4,
70-180/2,8, 80/1,4, a future Apo-Asph 90/2 etc...

Lucien
