Sold M8, need R-D1(s), any ideas?

[Tom Conte]

Sold my M8. It wasn't cutting it for me. I miss my old R-D1. Any ideas where to find one? It looks the the ship has sailed on the refurb ones direct from Epson.

Thanks in advance

Tom

There's still a few for sale in Japan new if you can find a seller over there?

Tom: I have one that I have been thinking of selling since getting my M8. It is the original configuration with updated firmware. Very good condition, but slightly tilted rf patch (accurate, though). Contact me off-list if you are interested.

Here's an idea -- Leica should approach Epson, buy the manufacturing rights to the RD-1, apply some QC, raise the price $2000, and then offer a decent digital rangefinder...
