I'd anticipate them coming out with a 14 so we'll still have a 21. Not get "choked out." by the digital crop. That's the first thing I did when I started digital. Went out and got a 14 so I'd still have 21. I don't think also they're worried one way or another about going "against" CV's 12 and 15. 15 might be what would end up giving you a 21 anyway if its less than a 1.5 digital crop circle. And an 18 to give you a 28 would complete a nice package. Or a 16 to give you a 24. I think they should make up their own numbers!! A 17 to give you a 15.5!?!? I've held out on getting the CV's 15 and 12 to see if Leica would respond as I'd kind of like to keep my system more or less "Leica" and this digital thing has certainly giving them a reason... To see how many Leica die hards will spend 3 or 4 times the cash on a red dot ash extravaganza from the black forests of Germany. Like me probably.
