Looks like the AF 201FG:

"Outsourcing the soul of all industry until your country and every country is nothing but a drawing board and service centre is the present."

Fixed that for you.

Hardly a matter of inability. China likely offers lower manufacturing costs than can be done in Russia, which is the same motivation for companies around the globe to source out to China.

It is the DPR way. You don't go to a monster truck rally to needlepoint.

Sounds fair, I'm awaiting delivery.

Does your camera fly? Is your camera routinely moving at speed, of its own power and not held in your hand and/or attached with a tether? This regulation isn't about controlling your voyeuristic...

"Are you conflating sharpness and *distortion*?"

To some degree, yes. A smeared dot simply is not as sharp as a pinpoint. Granted, some fish-eyes smear and distort much worse than others. And...

Disagree. Buying an Aston Martin, any color, suggests a certain degree of eccentricity. Lexus is the common man's play at a posh lifestyle. Any way you dice it, a Lexus is the cheesiest...

I would take the phrase, 'razor sharp', with a grain of salt when used to describe a fish-eye lens.

Levis? You mean that designer jeans company banking on their rugged past, now charging $60+ for a pair of jeans? You posh kitten. I thumb my Wranglers and Lees in your general direction.

Nothing says 'classy' like a black Lexus with gold trim.

Decooler, I have answered your question. You are not getting other people's email. They only APPEAR to be addressed to someone else. Somewhere in the that email, hidden from you, is >>>>YOUR<<<<...

Think of spam in your email like junk mail in your postal mailbox. Yes, it would be great to NOT receive it but there's little chance of eliminating it entirely. Instead, you it simply goes...

"In case you misunderstood they arrive already sorted by Google and put into my gmail Spam folder!"

Ah! Then what's the problem? I mean, aside from the obvious spam sucks problem? If they're...

I'm sorry, but did you not say, " but do they say which one when asked?"?

As for why you're getting emails to 'other' people; most likely you were 'bcc'ed' along with a hundred other email address...

"I keep receiving unsolicited spam mail from the Russian women syndrome claiming they have found me on a dating site, but do they say which one when asked?"

This is called 'phishing', and you took...

"Did you read..preproduction Camera in the title? Fail. "

I think he did. Note his use of the word 'pre-production', (albeit misspelled), and the use of the word 'early', mentioned several times....

Agreed. And to that, why pre-order something that is mass produced and will be available in abundance? It's not like we're talking about a Nurse With Wound art edition that will be sold out...

Legendary on the camera, new on the lens. How more obviously can it be said.

"For the first time in Leica’s history, a Leica M-Lens will be available in the legendary olive green finish. "
