Big “Leica-Bang” on September 15th

The German Foto Magazine distributed some Leica rumors in their latest edition (page 30):


Concerning the German photojournal FotoMagazin (FoMag) 8/2008 , which appeared today, there will be following Leica-news at Photochina:

– Leica will introduce a FF R10 and a new corresponding AF -lens line as prototype. Production will start late 2009.

– There will not be a new Leica FT model – but Leica will continue together with Panasonic the FTs line ( – think whatever you believe imho it is an Ausstieg¹ )

– FoMag is waiting for a new “Leica-Knaller” (Big Leica-Bang) which will be introduced at Sept. 15th in a press conference. FoMag will publish the news on a separate FoMag internet page.
