How sad. A Leica MP is still one of my dream-cameras, though the reality of what I actually need makes something like a Nikon D2x a more probable future purchase in terms of potential return on money spent. And I suppose that's part of their problem. They sure make good lenses, though.

Wow. My Panosonic Lumix digital camera has a Leica lens, with 12X optical Zoom. Love it.
