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.

Alan, please don’t change the Leica forums, they are perfect as they are. 🙏🏼.

Sincerely,
A Leica user
