This followed the official announcement of the end of production for the current R range. The production manager volunteered to allow members to visit inside their clean room and see for themselves. Of course the offer was greatly oversubscribed. The compromise was to have the lucky visitors film as they want and share. Remeber Leica does not fund or control that forum. I'm actually visiting there in a few weeks amd the Leica Akadamie has offered a special tour day since the facilities will actually be closed due to public holiday during the official forum meetings/workshops. Cool! I hope to take my M8 where I can and shall share photos here. . 2009/5/6 bruce golding <leica at ralgo.nl> > this form of filming should be banned. it's rubbish. > > any leica user wishing to see such information will wish to see detailed > close-ups during the explanations. > > have it filmed by a professional who knows what marketing means and who can > execute a clear-cut presentation. > > b. > > > On 5-mei-2009, at 18:43, Steve Unsworth wrote: > > From the LUF.
