I think that Leica will announce some interesting things then. What most of us are waiting for is the digital back for the R series. If Leica does not have a solid working prototype at Photokina then there will be little hope for the company's long term future. Most of their customers who actually use the cameras will then be forced to choose among the other offerings.

I write this general inquiry with the hope that some of you have some insight or knowledge about plans that Solms may have for new Leica products in 2004. I'm particularly interested in M. Some time ago on this list a reference was made to a revised Noctilux 50. I could not tell if it was a humorous reference or a rumor. There have been numerous references to a smaller version of the 75, perhaps with an f2.0 aperture, and an ASPH Summilux 50. A Noctilux 35 at 1.2 or 1.0, anyone? Does anyone have good reason to believe that these or other possibilities are in the works? Thanks for any information. Tom __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
