This was posted on Sony Rumors. Is this true about the sensor.
and I quote
ell, Leica knows how to make ane exclusive camera! They just announced the Leica T APS-C mirrorless camera ($1800 here at BHphoto). It has the same 16 Megapixel sensor of the $398 NEX-3n. But the NEX-3n comes with a lens while the Leica T does not. And the (slow!) Leica T kit zoom costs another $1750.
Thanks. I finally tracked down the reference. Here it is.
What happens if you put a Sony sensor inside a block of aluminum? You will get a $1800 Leica camera | sonyalpharumors

If this rumor this incorrect then Leica needs to publicly state so, me thinks.
When Hasselblad did a similar play IIRC they chose to work off the Sony NEX-7.
Well, for now I think I'll stick with my NEX-5N, NEX-7, A7R and a few other cameras like E-M5, E-M1, M-9, and D800E. The new Lytro Illum though looks interesting, but they need to be forthcoming with more details.
