Not even a reskinned new Panasonic? :eek:
:wtf: You'd think something like that would be easy to spit out, but nope. I'm not sure what to say, LOL. Who knows. Maybe a last minute deal fell through, something couldn't be done in time - or, there's just nothing new coming for a while. Only Leica knows for sure.

Oops!:eek: My apologies.

Now, I have to get back to the Panasonic GM1. A big let down.

Ah well - some you win, some you lose!

I will not get a GM1, I will not get a GM1, I will not get a GM1

They only brought out the C a couple of months ago - you only want to spit out a Panasonic once a year :). I expect there will be something in the spring. I'm still sad that there isn't a µ43 body though - seems like a missed opportunity.

:dh2:

My bet is on photokina or start of German financial year if Leica are going to announce anything major.

Photokina is pretty late in the year, so I'm not too sure about that one. I'd bet on major stuff being held out for that. But the beginning of Q1 sounds reasonable for compacts, etc.

Leica should stuff an OLED in place of the RF and call it whatever they want as long as it is FF and 24MP, it will sell well and keep new customers buying M lenses.

I'd consider one for a backup to my M. Would they get away with calling it a Mini M even though it has no RF?

Leica should do this. Sony may eat their lunch if Leica wides work decently well on the A7r.

I think not; Leica’s core business is selling lenses. If they can sell a considerable number of them to other-brand owners that is good for their bottom line.

A rebranded GX7 - and double the price?! Nah, I would sooner get the EM1.

A rebranded GM1 however, with the Leica logo...........now we might be talking.
