If you are a shareholder you got some good news I guess. One rather startling bit of information is that Leica Camera were completing all of 63 lenses a day, now ramped up to 120 with plans to increase that to 240 lenses. That would be M and S together These are tiny tiny numbers. I knew about and have seen the production methods of course but seeing the actual numbers goes a long way to explaining why the queues to get anything new at all are so slow following the success of the M9.
