About US$4,200 for the body, the 18 - 56 zoom and the viewfinder. Over on the Leica forum there is some chatter about how affordable that is in Leica terms. Andreas, who had a set for pre- release testing, admitted that the AF wasn't much for moving objects. By comparison the Fuji T X 1 with the 18 - 55 zoom is US$1,700 and it has hybrid focusing modes which lets one take pictures like this using the Fuji 55 - 200 zoom. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Tanza2014/Vulturefightw.jpg.html> I think I'll pass even though I admit the design is very clean.
