Hmmmmmm....I doubt it. Don't ask me why, but I do. I guess I'm thinking
Japan because - a., Leica has looked to the East for its previous
collaborations; and b., there they get the camera heritage that people
no longer associate with Kodak. Of course go with Kodak and you get the
film association, to say nothing of Kodak's pro digital backs and
bodies...But I'd still bet on Japan, as long as I'm betting...
