But don't get me wrong - I'd love to see some Leica 4/3 lenses....especially some fast primes...but I just don't expect to see it... -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Kit McChesney Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 12:16 PM To: 'Leica Users Group' Subject: RE: [Leica] "Four Thirds System" Digital Rangefinder Well, Panasonic has already made a big announcement that they plan to take on Sony and increase their share of the digital pie exponentially, and using Leica lenses as part of the draw. I'm hoping (read: praying) that Leica introduces a mid-priced digital camera (around $800-$1000) at Photokina, one with some real features. We'll see.

And to see it using interchangeable lenses designed and made by Leica. Photokina 2004 or PMA 2005 ? Lucien _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
