I think if Leica produces a live view camera, with full frame and M 
mount, I'd buy it.   I'd hope it still has an optical RF, but includes a 
live view viewer that I can turn off.

Just imagine, using R lenses natively on the camera with an R-to-M 
adapter, and live view.

And M lenses naturally, or LTM lenses with adapters.

And all those neat gadgets like BOOWU's and Visoflexes and bellows and such.

I'd be trusting Solm's to "get it right" - with Leica quality imaging on 
the sensor, and stellar qualities on the live view.
