Just had a phone call from my esteemed dealer. My R-M adapter has arrived, so I will shortly be getting it with my M and EVF-2. My digital learning curve is about to begin, starting from sea-level. I always was an early adapter (sic).

I 've gone thru two adapters, both of which allow sharp pictures, but didn't bring up the R menu. I've sent the Novoflex off to have coding slots milled so that I can paint it. The painted white dot that it came with failed after a few uses. And now my usual dealer, Popflash, is starting to receive the Leica R-to-Ms. I have one coming this week.

They do at last appear to be arriving in quantity, it's only been 16 months since the camera was announced...

 

My dealer enclosed a free copy of the 99 Years book, as a thank-you for being patient. Nice gesture since (of course) the delay was not at all their fault.

You’re very lucky it was not another copy of the ghastly selfies book :D

Pete, did you order it or do they have them on stock now?

John,

 

I placed my order at the same time as my M when it was announced by Leica so that was some 16 months ago. Red Dot Cameras had received more than just mine and I expect that they'll go to others on the waiting list but it *might* be worth a phone call on Monday if you're looking for one.

 

Pete.

Never seen a photoshop that is closed on Saturdays except Lars Netopil in Wetzlar and Red Dot in London. Here in Middle Europe they would make biggest business on saturdays in cities!

'normal people' so not the retired like most of Leica owners :D have to work between Monday and Friday, so that leaves only the saturday for camera shopping!

 

But in 2014 we can expect a Leica Boutique within the premisses of Leica in Wetzlar. Curious to find out what their stocks will be:D:D

 

John
