Wow. I'd certainly be upset if I paid that kind of price for a camera and was told I had to put a special filter on every lens I owned. Don't know what the reaction of the Leica community is going to be but I don't think Leica is handling it the right way. Sounds like a disaster in the making. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
