    Thank you for pointing me to your article, David. I remember reading it at the time, but had completely forgotten about the ‘parallel' writing.

    Anyway, I have a 32 Gb SD card which I will use in the S2 without the CF in the camera. This will make downloading the files on my MBP easier, since I won't need an extra card reader for the…[Read more]

    David,
    I stand corrected on salt water spray.
    This blog:
    http://www.lensrentals.com/blog
    Explains why they do not insure their lenses when renters “abuse” equipment in salt water.

    Also warns about certain kinds of color dust used in color bomb runs.
    Never had heard about that.

    Thanks Jim.

    That is not really much PP. Looks like a powerful little camera. I have to play with it next time I visit a Leica dealer. 🙂

    This should work. If not, you'll have to export the containing folder as a catalog and import that way.

    As soon as I posted the ThinkTank bag, a friend informed me I was out of date.
    ThinkTank had invented the MindShift Gear Rotation 180. It has a internal fanny pack that can slide out to the front when you need a lens or filter change, and then backside for being on the move.

    OK, I am not always traveling light.
    With a recent purchase of a third S lens, assorted filters, and a tripod, I needed something that could hold it all, and be transported on a bike. That called for a backpack.

    Got the Think Tank to do the job. I used their lens changer bag to be a base for the…[Read more]

    Today, Leica Camera has released a statement about the delivery situation regarding the Leica M (Typ 240):

    Since its presentation at the photokina 2012, the new Leica M has become extremely popular. The large number of orders we have received shows the outstanding acceptance of the new M-System on the market. The enormous demand has by far exceeded our expectations, with the consequence that delays in deliveries can unfortunately not be avoided.

    In the words of Markus Limberger, COO at Leica Camera AG: “We are very sorry about these delays and hope you will understand the current situation. Please rest assured that we are investing an enormous amount of time and effort in the sustainable expansion of our production capacities, naturally in full compliance with our commitment to absolute quality. Despite the very high demand, particularly of the Leica M, the quality of our products and the high-precision in our production maintains our high standard.”

    A significant cause for the longer waiting times is Leica’s uncompromising manufacturing process in accordance with the ‘factory’ principle. Just like all other Leica products, the Leica M is manufactured and assembled in an elaborate manual process that must satisfy the most stringent demands on precision engineering, painstaking care and quality. Each Leica M is a handcrafted product in every detail and may only leave the factory after being tested, checked and adjusted for so long until its flawless finish and performance are guaranteed and fulfill the exhaustive quality demands on which the worldwide reputation of Leica is founded. This commitment to precision and quality has been the the core principle of Leica manufacturing for almost a century. The endurance, reliability and perceived value of Leica products have been instrumental in the creation of the Leica legend.

    To ensure that we can continue to maintain these uncompromising quality standards and simultaneously reduce order-fulfillment times, Leica Camera AG is currently significantly expanding production capacities, creating job opportunities for additional specialists and trainees, and is building a completely new, ultra-modern factory that will open in Wetzlar in 2014 with facilities to satisfy production demand. The sum total of these measures will relieve pressures in the production process and simultaneously lead to considerably shorter order-fulfillment times.

    We're hopeful that deliveries of the camera will increase over the coming months. The response of users who have managed to obtain a camera has been overwhelmingly positive, and we'll be posting a full M review here soon!

    One of the constant themes in web discussions is that no-one can really get a sense of what images from cameras like the S-System actually look like. Web images are way too low-res.
