scroy Posted June 26, 2018 Share #1  Posted June 26, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've been noticing at many Leica stores that many TL lenses are back ordered.  Likely its due to lenses being produced in batches and perhaps also due the popularity of the CL. Some lenses such as the 11-23 seem to have not been in stock for awhile.  Any insights on what is typical for Leica on release schedules for existing product among the lens lines?  Thanks!

Guest VVJ Posted June 27, 2018 Share #4  Posted June 27, 2018 At a certain moment B&H did get some new supply of the (if I recall correctly) 11-23mm but I see it is now back-ordered again.  It is a weird situation... Not sure what to think of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted July 1, 2018 Share #5  Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) No new 18-56TL in stock yesterday at Red Dot, London - they said they were coming through very slowly, but snapped up on arrival. Just as I was leaving they remembered they had just taken one in part exchange. So I got it at a decent discount Edited July 1, 2018 by LocalHero1953 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VVJ Posted July 1, 2018 Share #6  Posted July 1, 2018 The 18-56mm is actually still in stock in the US. It's the 2 other zooms that have been unavailable since a while already... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VVJ Posted July 1, 2018 Share #8 Â Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) they're too busy making the SL90/SL75 Â Â The TL-lenses (except for the 35mm and the 60mm) are made in Japan, so a shortage of resources should not be the reason I guess...
