Leica R10 will be all this

By LR admin | Published: November 20, 2008
  • Full frame 24x36mm
  • 24MP or more (based on the size of the sensor compared to the 30×45 mm 37.5 MP sensor in the S2)
  • Kodak sensor
  • ISO 1600 and above (with 1600 ISO in acceptable quality; better than existing Hasselblad it has been stated)
  • Same or better image quality than DMR (which is already better than Canon 1ds Mark III and Nikon D3)
  • Autofocus (with a new range of AF R-lenses implied, or internal AF as described further down the page!)
  • Backwards compatible with existing non-AF R-lenses
  • Based on the S2 developments and technology
  • Big bright viewfinder, great for focusing, information and prople wearing glasses
  • Fast AF, fast buffer, fast everything
  • Smaller size than Leica R9, Leica S2 and Canon 1ds Mark III
  • FireWire
  • Focus on simplicity, manual control, image quality, Leica philosophy about the image in focus
  • Dual memory card support for Flash and SD-cards (as the S2)?
