Subject: [Leica] new 50/1.4 M lens

The issue of price is not between the present $2100 lens and the new $2500
lens.

The issue is the availability of  years of used $800-1300 older designed
lenses and the new $2500 lens.  A difference of $1200 .......

Yes, I think there is a market.... but like most Leica lenses, in a few
months, there will be very lightly used ones selling for a lot less than the
new ones, as early adopters get tired if this particular new piece of
equipment...


I think it was a previous subscriber that made a comment on when to buy a
new Leica lens.....at 1/2 price.
