I don't think Leica is going to waste resources on the Micro 4/3. They know their future is with the S2, R10 and next generation M.

Re: Panasonic and Leica Policies

Don't forget Olympus - they certainly show every sign of making a Pen F lookalike, and they're scheduled to bring out 5 lenses as I understand it as well.

Jono that's the problem I'm seeing with Olympus is the "lookalike." If it doesn't have the PEN F functionality, I don't see any thing to make it standout.

They hope.

You mean, if it doesn't use film?

No hump on the top; view finder not in the middle of the body, an EVF doesn't care where it is.
