[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]According to He Who Is No Longer Here, Leica will be introducing an honest-to-God flare fix at Photokina - a flare fix that can then be retrofitted to the batch of M7 folks here were foolish enough to rush out and buy, ;-), as well as to M6TTls. At least one dealer has said this retrofit will cost about $300 - and why not to have a manufacturer repair what is clearly a defect in a $2000 camera? ;-) B. D. P.S. Oh, right - Leica will also be announcing the addition of a 400th sec top shutter speed, 250th flash sync, spot and matrix metering, and near silent auto-advance.

I wonder what kind of upgrade Leica is working on? Will it be a different, less “flare prone” viewing window? Anything else? Victor >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> From: "Greg J. Lorenzo" <gregj.lorenzo@shaw.ca> Subject: Re: [Leica] M7 update 2. and more :-) Hi Tom, Great to have the update on the M7, but I'm holding off on purchasing until the price comes down, more cameras are in use and any potential R8 like electrical gremlin's are shaken out. <.....> _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
