Oh No! This is the one item I really wanted from Photokina.

I am even evaluating to go back to a M9p.
By the way there are some cmos which looks fine to me. The A900, the K5 looks ok and the 5dIII is not that bad in regards…

What a beauty ! How rare is it to catch the fog like that ? I ve never seen a photograph with the fog right on the ocean .

Looks like I have the same problem. Used the products on m8/m9 with no problem and then on the S2 asap . Pulled off the original protector today and it looks like the screen is shot .

Al..did you try to clean it yourself with anything ?

Very nice ! The S lenses really do seem to be at a level of perfection I never seen in any system .

A few of use purchased the extended warranty for Leica on the S2 . This was done at the time we purchased the camera in my case January 2011. It was my understanding that the warranty was just one year . So I have assumed my warranty was up in January 2013 .

It was darn expensive around $1700 and for my limited use seemed a…[Read more]

You can feel the cold in that photograph. Very nice…[Read more]

So what happened to the promised upgrade program ?

So it looks like only the original purchaser of a new lens from an authorized dealer will qualify ….seems reasonable . Maybe not as difficult a process as it looked at first glance . Great for the S2 owners .

Now if they can just start supplying the lenses . 😎

[QUOTE=fotografz;3753]Leica cannot make this their customer’s problem. It is their problem, and they should solve it. If they wanted to limit the time-line, then they should have clearly and concisely done it up front, not after the fact.

I have no ax to grind here as I never considered the CS versions in my purchase decision .…[Read more]

Excellent work ! I had seen some of these earlier and agree that Mark has some real talent. David and Andre have the inside on the model shots in Florida … hope you can come down in January

The question is whats fair and responsive ? Leica clearly needs to extend the Sept10,2010 cut off ..not only because the CS lenses were not available ..but also because you could not get S lenses either .

I would expect that they will try to draw a line someplace. Without a cut off you could just pick up a few used S lenses and trade…[Read more]

Here is my recommendation to Leica (for what its worth) .

1. Establish a clear cut off date for lenses that can be upgraded . (sometime in 2011). This should account for the delay in getting any S lens and can be done as an extension of of the OCT 2010 deadline . Lens purchased after the date aren t covered .

2. Would be desirable…[Read more]

As pointed out above Leica has gotten themselves into quite a jam with the delay of the CS lenses . If they provide the previously agreed upon trade in ..they will get a flood of new orders for the CS lenses . Would a good guess be one or two CS lenses for every S2 body sold? (this would also make the CS lenses essentially unavailable to any…[Read more]

I can t argue with the challenges to producing retina enabled images for general consumption . Both you and diglloyd have outlined many issues . These are from the perspective of providing content . My view is of course primarily from a consumer of content ..but I want to be able to show my work as well.

My POV is that the…[Read more]
