Ask your dealer. They are free.

Assuming that you live in the U.S., you can call Leica USA toll free at 1-800-222-0118 and ask for "THE PROGRAM", which is what they call their catalog. The last time I did this, I got an answering machine and left my address. Within a week the catalog was in my mail box.

I do this about once a year, because the catalogs are updated as new products are offered.

I just did as Al directed. He speaks the truth! Left my name and address with the voice on the answering machine. Will know in a week if I receive "The Program."

Seems very Sci-Fi, don't it???

Here's something even more "sci-fi": you can down load the catalog as a PDF file from the Leica site and view it on your computer! Zounds!! As an example the link to get to the M catalog is: http://www.leica-camera.com/produkte/msystem/m6ttl/pdf/index_e.html

If you go to the Leica site and click your way through to each category of product that you are interested in (such as "lenses") you will finally reach a link that says "product information". That will lead you to an index of PDF files of the catalog for that product.

Steve,

I saw that, but the hard copy "analog" catalog is easier to read in the bathroom... and take no time for the next page to load. ;-)

Al:

That would be:

Leica

You can print PDF files. My pup just ate the stuff from Linhof. I can either go through dog leavings in the yard and paste it together or ask for another catalogue. No Question, PDF is better. :)
