I believe that I read that Saunders/Tiffen declared bankruptcy about 
1 to 1 1/2 years ago and have seen nothing about them being revived. 
I think that this unreliability is described as "reorganization" in 
the business press. I guess taking second-rate products and slapping 
the word "Digital" somewhere in the name doesn't increase sales that 
much anymore.
