The Leica Digital Forum has a link to flickr photo page that shows the new Leica S system.
Looks like a 35mm SLR, no back.
37 megapixels
30x45 mm sensor
weatherproof seals
autofocus faster than Hassey
9 focal plane and leaf shutter lenses, including 24mm and 30mm tilt shift
records in DNG format
size between Canon 5D and EOS 1DS MK III
The technology from the S system will trickle down to other Leica systems. "The R is far from dead."
If this is all true, (if not someone went to alot of trouble) I hope this works for Leica. Seems like a big gamble. I think I still want a Sinar with WLF.
Interesting times.
Best,
Mitchell
