I'll have to dig my Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 and its kit out of the cupboard!!! Last time I used it the results from my M6 TTl (now sold) easily printed to A3+. Graeme The Nikon Coolscan 5000 is an awsome machine. Capable of producing great scans. As is the Coolscan 8000, for medium format as well as 35mm. Qualification: Just like great cameras, they only function at their best in skillful hands. Capable of producing excellent files for large blowups that can be measured in feet, rather than inches, and still maintain image integrity.

He also says no other editions of M6 given there is the MA and MP. No other editions? For now yes, but the special editions will no doubt follow in time.

I'm not even sure that is in affect anymore. But there still is normal duty / tariff, which seems to be 0% at this time if I read the Harmonized Tariff Schedule for 35mm cameras correctly.

zeitz Posted October 25, 2022 Share #88 Posted October 25, 2022 This is probably a better statement of the situation from a different posting string. "As an aside, Leica didn’t increase German lens prices by 25% for the US. Rather they spread the increase across camera/lens product lines, averaging closer to 10% (with a few exceptions). Once built in, I doubt there has been, or will be, any commensurate reduction, regardless of any tariff elimination, especially given subsequent cost increases resulting from the pandemic, supply line issues, etc. https://www.reddotforum.com/content/2019/12/leica-price-increase-coming-jan-1-2020/ Jeff" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
