Yes, Indeed, Paul. You will get a quarterly publication called
"Viewfinder" which is excellent. Caters, about equally, to both
collectors and active shooters. If you don't get the latest issue
within several more weeks, drop me a personal email and I'll pass
along the email address of the "Viewfinder" editor and you can see if
there is a problem.
Otherwise, The Leica Catalog is, admitedly, more for the collector
who is actively trading in things Leica. If you're a shooter,
however, and in the market for something, the Catalog is a good place
to look. The advertisers may or may not be offering at 'low ball"
prices, but the are a "cut above" the run of the mill advertisers in
rec.photo.marketplace.
