Group: Various topics, including appearance of new lenses, M vs R development, specialty items, student programs, etc. Leica: "We don't know, we'll look into it." "We can't discuss that now" "We don't know if there's enough interest" "We'd like to do that, but our resources are stretched." Now you know why nothing of substance appeared. There was nothing of substance TO appear! The Leica people were very nice, but wasn't exactly a thrilling hour. In addition, we were shuttled into a room with the ambience of an FBI questioning chamber, which didn't help convivial chat. Granted, the Javits center isn't exactly heaven on earth, but there are move inviting meeting venues. <<<<<<<< Since I'm unlikely ever to have any clout at Leica or even to be present at one of these chat occasions, could someone please, _please_ ask them one time why their service is so crap? Why is it impossible to have a camera serviced in Italy, without it being sent to Germany? I really don't care about the next lens, I'd just like to get my cameras fixed quickly and reliably. I'm sure lots of other people have this same requirement. Rob. Robert Appleby V. Bellentani 36 41100 MO Italy tel. (+39) 059 303436 mob. (+39) 0348 336 7990
