Any suggestions of where one might be able to purchase a new Summilux 50mm ASPH f1.4? Casting around from here in NZ, it seems this lens remains out of stock worldwide, with no-one really able to offer any reliable ETA for new stock.

I have been on my dealers list since late january. And there are 2 people ahead of me. They have been on the list since late october.

 

Rumours according to my dealer says there are currently 600 orders waiting for delivery just in Europe....

Hi

 

E-mail Ivor in red dot, he will bust a (his) gut...

 

But there are general lens shortages consequent on M8 and M9 sales to new users, who need sets of lenses, the M9 takes some of the pressure of 28 and 35mm, moving it to 50mms...

I ordered one a few weeks ago and thus far nothing which is O.K. since it allows me time to gather the needed funds. Amazon.com seems to have them available at an inflated price. Amazon.com: Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summilux-M Aspherical Manual Focus Lens (11892): Electronics

 

Here's a used one but by the time the auctioning is over it may be close to the price of the going street price for a brand new one, which is around $3700.00. Leica Summilux M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH - Minty! - eBay (item 140404582858 end time May-09-10 18:16:25 PDT)
