Why's that? I think most people's interpretation of a full frame sensor in an R10 would be 36mm x 24mm.

If medium format shooters are switching to digital - which current prices would seem to indicate - how many of them are going to switch to Leica? I don't think that the numbers would support the idea that this by itself would be enough to regenerate the R system.
