For the original Leitz Trinovid a rain guard had to be bought as an after sales accessory. Even if Leica would take them in production again, would you still accept that? An even more important aspect in dire need of a solution, is the eye cup. Note that the design harks back to the days of the rubber roll up-roll down cups, incapable of in-between settings. Now, here comes the 7x35, a configuration that never had a dedicated pair of eye cups. The 14 mm cups it came with are simply too short for the majority of users, and the 19 mm used on the 7x42 simply too long. I'm eagerly awaiting Leica's answer tot the problem.Renze</blockquote>
