40 megapixels medium format Leica and 10 autofocus lens @ Photokina

Email from a reader in France:
Today, I had to go to xxx a well known store dedicated to Leica in Paris (France) to get a part replaced on my M6. The owner of the store was talking with a friend about the next Leica camera…
He said that Leica will be announcing at Photokina a new camera , that no other brands have, a digital medium format camera dedicated to reporter (like the mamiya 7, but digital).

The only technical specification that he said was : 40mpixel, medium format and Leica will produce a range of 10 autofocus lenses for that camera. He also said that it would be available 6 months to 1 year after photokina.

He talked about the R10 too, but he said nothing interesting on it. Just “Yes, the R10 will come”.

What can you buy for $140,579.00?

Got some spare cash laying around? Get a Leica from ebay:
You will also have to pay another $42 for shipping. For that price, I would expect the shipping to be included.
Thanks for the link L.
