About the framelines, I read it that the camera will bring up the proper framing for the lens in use; so the Leica M 28mm Summicron, say, will bring up the 28mm frameline, which is not the same view as the 28mm frameline on your Leica M. Did I miss something ? I would have preferred CF cards, as that is what I use. Do 1-Gig SD cards exist and at what price ? - - Phong Christopher Williams wrote: > > I know it's way to early to argue prices, but I remember the > Canon D60, Fuji > S2 selling at $2600 when it was first released.
