What may be difficult is figuring out how to create a 35mm full-frame body taking Leica lenses, not coming up with a rangefinder version of the current DSLRs that will take Leica lenses. :-) I am still convinced that Leica had absolutely no intention of developing a digital M - and only made its announcement because of the CosEpson annoncement. AND, I still believe that year after year will pass with no Leica digital M...But I may be wrong... B.

Add to that the nudge to Solms that the introduction of a non-Leica digital-M will give and I just can't see anything to be pessimistic about. My hat is off the engineers who solved this "impossible" technical challenge about which so many electrons have been spilt. Bravissimo! Now let's see the camera.
