Why do you think they stopped this?

So we can solve a puzzle ? :bang:

OK...I guess... stop making the R-D1 ? 😕

Best,

Probably a combination of low sales, a general lack of interest by Epson in the dRF market, and an aging camera Epson wasn't interested in updating.

And the old, "Me and my friends get nervous, see? And last time we got nervous, well, knowwhatImean?"

I've not done that in 30 years or more, but it's fun at the time. A friend and her husband were splitting up. She (and some of her friends) turned up at the (formerly marital) abode to remove the furniture that she had paid for -- including the matrimonial bed.

Her husband had his heavy chums there too -- but we were heavier...

Quite fun to imagine it with the people I know at Leica. Some for the silent menace, some as muscle... Probably best not to say who I have in mind.

Cheers,

R.
 
They got a raft of sh*t for QC problems. After that and the low sales (even I wouldn't have bought it at $3K, and I love the camera) they decided it wasn't worth it. Who needs a black eye for that kind of limited market nonsense?

I heard it was a highly-collectible aluminum all-black 35mm f/1.2 (super rare! Only two Illuminati own one!) Nikkor S.C. lens mounted on an ultra-rare Made in Occupied Japan black-paint SP :angel:

Just to drive an ironic twist to the libel.
