The lens (on my CL) says "Wetzlar, Wetzlar, Wetzlar". That has the Panasonics beat to hell. Those lenses may say Leica on them, but the only thing Leica is the design. Not made in Germany, Canada, Portugal, or any other place that Leica has a factory. Made in the Far East (not that that's a bad place, but it's, as you say, Tom, a long way from any Leica QC person).

cheers,
frank

Panasonic, Panasonic, Panasonic...

Do you suppose Leica does extra quality control before or after they put their name on it? Nah, probably not. If you have an older digital Leica you can say Fuji, Fuji, Fuji... But then if you have a Leica CL you can say Minolta, Minolta, Minolta...

Tell me again how much better a Leica is than a Panasonic, Fuji, or Minolta.
