george + Posted November 6, 2006 Share #6 Posted November 6, 2006 Have not heard anything in Toronto either. This is quite disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrycioni Posted November 6, 2006 Author Share #7 Posted November 6, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I am getting the same story here in Vancouver. Bleak as that sounds... it seems only the V-LUX and D-LUX are available in Canada. A Leica dealer in Vancouver is having a special Leica day on Nov. 9th where we be given the chance to see the new cameras... Cheers from a very wet Vancouver. Terry.

terrycioni Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share #10 Posted November 7, 2006 Hi Bradley, Good to hear! Please let me know how you make out with getting your M this week.. I have ordered one from L&S but am not expecting it anytime soon because I just placed the order last week. I am also interested in having a look at the Digilux 3. I do plan to be there on the November 9th. Good luck with your M. Cheers. Terry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Roberts Posted November 7, 2006 Share #11 Posted November 7, 2006 Called Eight Elm Photo in Toronto where I'm on a list (and where they have my deposit) for an M8. They said 5 M8s shipped Friday for Toronto. That's "all of Toronto..." so 3 dealers. So: one each for the showcase and bang. Two left; and I'm not number one at Vistek or Eight Elm. I think I need to source a camera somewhere else... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism Posted November 7, 2006 Share #12 Posted November 7, 2006 I haven't been able to get an answer from Vistek as to where I stand on their list, but they do keep telling me I am going to get mine in the first shipment, which they say is mid-November. My guess is that none are going in the display case this time around. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'd say offhand if you get it this week, you're #2 at Vistek, right after Michael Reichmann Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils-advocate Posted November 7, 2006 Share #14 Posted November 7, 2006 Well, I hope that's true. The first shipment, according to the Leica rep in Canada, has shipped, and it's small. So I'd say offhand if you get it this week, you're #2 at Vistek, right after Michael Reichmann I heard each dealer in Canada is expecting a whopping two units in the first shipment. Michael wasn't kidding about prying his tester out of his cold dead hands, so you're probably #1 at Vistek. I wonder if that exempts you from the attitude? - N.

Visited with Tom Abrahamson of rapidwinder fame. All and all it was a pleasant experience. The battery is charging as I write this. Cheers. Terry.
