Perhaps a third out for Leica. Me im not anticipating gremlins with the S2. As its a forth out. I don't think these Germans are fooling around. I think it will be or already is a reliable camera which is just going to work... Inspire the people who use them. Ted picked one up a few weeks ago I think and was impressed I've also been blown away by the experience. Just picking the thing up and clicking it gives one delusions of grandeur like nothing has before. Megalomania. I'm sure I got red in the face. Needed a cold shower. I'm going to say right now I think its the greatest Leica ever made ever. Film or digital. Based on the quality of images I'm knowing its going to make. With really plenty of spontaneity. I mean its not a dumb modular box it looks like a real regular camera nobodies going to have to figure out how to take pictures with a brick sitting on top of a tripod. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/ mark at rabinergroup.com Cars: http://tinyurl.com/2f7ptxb > From: Slobodan Dimitrov <s.dimitrov at charter.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Sat, 18 Dec 2010 17:25:24 -0800 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Any chance there is a DMR out there for sale? > > Well, since I posted the comment first, yeah, there are issues.
