PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO COPY. And regarding the inside, if it is near the capabilities and specs of a, lets say, D700 or a 5DII, I am going the very next day of the announcement to sell my beloved car.Ciao.J.J.

The flat taller top plate would allow designers to have more freedom and comfort for further development of the M body, including the full frame and Motor Wider attached from the bottom. The apearance of the Lumix G1, open the vast array of new possibilities, though: with mirrorless body, Live View, compactness, using all different types of adapters... to name just a few,... which might lead to the merging R to M, or viceversa. The high resolution of a Digital viewfinder might replace the traditional M one, which is a Stroke of the Master in its own right. I would keep the top shutter speed/8000s/, like on my M8, keep the biggest pixels as possible, Live View, Anti- Shake Vibration in the Body/just like one in the Sony Alpha A900/, Sapphire Glas, Cerramic Components wherever Possible/Contax G1, G2, Tvs Digital, T2, T3/, but NO AUTOFOCUS!

Not a mistake that Leica is going to make again. And there's something about that recessed SS-dial that jsut doesn't feel right. I dont't know what it is, but I don't like it.But that battery-level indicator is cool though, even if it is nicked straight from the bottom of my MacBookPro... :DHe's also omitted the cable release-thread from the first one.And to "LeicaSchmeica" (I see what you did there...), if Nikon would do something as simple as this, the digital FM3A that I've been waiting for, this idiot would spend money on it. Or an Olympus OM2D, Canon F1D, Voigtländer Bessa D, Zeiss Ikon D, Pentax LX-D, or anything with a good viewfinder and analog switches and button and levers.

I mean, the more simple a Leica gets, the more money some idiots are going to spend for it, for just a normal cam with nothing special on it.... Do you think your sketches are still “basic” enough?
