They may not intend to produce such a camera. But I beleive I would be
interested in one modern update of  the M concept. The actual M6 is fine.
But  I do enjoy truly the automatic film advance, the higher sync speed
and the autoexposure-mode of the Hexar RF and Contax G2. I am not into
auto-focus, since I appreciate classic rangefinder focusing. And I intend
to keep my lenses for a long time.

What are yours views? Am I the only one to wish such a camera?
