1.25 Viewfinder Availability?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

I cannot find the Leica M 1.25 Viewfinder in stock anywhere. Does anyone know of a reputable dealer in the USA that has this in stock? Thanks!

I would recommend Rich Pinto at www.photovillage.com. Great guy to deal with and has very, very good prices.

David. I've tried to get one too. They seem to be on back order. Leica underestimated the demand for this item.

I have one for sale in boxed as new condition, tried it on my .85 and did not like it so never been used. If anyone in the uk preferably or elsewhere would like to buy it please contact me offline.

Regards, Gary.

David,

I've had a 1.25X on backorder at Photo Village since before the first of the year. They are indeed in short supply. Given the demand (or lack of supply), you might want to see if you can try one before you invest the money and time waiting.

There's been a lot of talk about this on MUG lately. There's a German seller I know who seems to have a few. If anyone needs one and is prepared to order from Germany, let me know and I'll email you his email address.

Cheers, Duncan
