No more Leica “R”

The news today is that Leica is discontinuing the Leica R9 and lenses. I’m not sure if this will elevate or depress prices on Leica R lenses.

I’m a big fan of the Leica R APO lenses, most of which can be used on Canon or Nikon. See previous comments.

European store SH photo has what remains of Leica’s stock, apparently having bought it out. See also the links to various APO lenses on my Gear page.

Leica is apparently focusing on the new S2 line. Will there be a need for an R replacement, and can Leica swing the funding in this economic climate? The smart move would be a very aggressive rollout of the S2, perhaps it can be the new and only DSLR story from Leica. I do expect to get an S2 for review something in May or so.
