The message is uber clear is it not? Leica using photographers are NOT the target market any more. I bet we in Asia can get our hands on these new products much easier than all of you can in Europe and the USA... I think it will be well worthwhile to contemplate an investment in Leica equity with a 2-3 year horizon than buy their products, I think it will be far more profitable!
