Stefan Daniel of Leica Solms said at the LHSA meeting a couple of years ago that
acquiring digital focus-assist technology for the R series is as problematic as
getting autofocus technology: none of the Japanese companies will sell it to Leica,
and Leica cannot develop the technology by itself. Perhaps now is the time for one of
the Japanese manufacturers who claims to revere Leica to come to the company's aid.
