Will there be a dedicated Leica forum?

    Too late. It was done days ago. At least for now.

    What’s your point? Do you request another structural change?

    Sorry, no. I didn’t mean to reopen the discussion. I’m fine the way things are.

    It can be fixed. Alan was a little over-enthusiastic about changing forums and creating forums at the start. That's OK.

    Go look at the DPReview "L-mount (Panasonic/Sigma/Leica) Talk" forum. It ain't much about Leica (except for a couple of lenses).

    The typical L-mount user has a Panasonic S5, a Panasonic 20-60 and one or two Panasonic f/1.8 primes, and comes from MFT.

    @jaberg Sorry for the confusion, I was replying to and asking @JohnVickers.

    @JohnVickers What issue do you have with the current structure and what is your change request?

    To me it looks like you’re mostly into Panasonic, so why even bother about the Leica sub-forums?

    Leica forums are perfectly fine. So I don’t understand @JohnVickers’ suggestion.

    Just to leave things clear with L-Mount:

    L-mount cameras:

    Leica T
    Leica TL
    Leica TL2
    Leica CL
    Leica SL
    Leica SL2
    Leica SL2S

    Panasonic S1
    Panasonic S1H
    Panasonic S1R
    Panasonic S5
    Panasonic S5II
    Panasonic S5IIX

    Sigma FP
    Sigma FPL

    L-Mount lenses:

    7Artisans
    Kipon
    Leica
    Lensbaby
    Meyer Optik
    Panasonic
    Sigma
    TTArtisan
    Venus optics

    DPR only has one forum to contain all 3 brands, there was never enough participation to justify a forum for each one.

    One "general forum" is necessary (maybe enough) because there are many lenses from 9 brands, not only Sigma, Leica or Panasonic that need a place to be discussed.

    I'm not changing it unless we have a large majority wanting it - which I am not seeing.
