it must be the release of a new MP. At least I hope so....

 

24 April = 24-4 = Leica M 244

I thought that was for the T.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Me too. But you never know

They have been touting "Das Wesentliche" for a few years now - I would not draw any specific conclusions from it.

M240 Monochrom?

Well, I see a block of aluminium in the picture, so if you have been visiting leicarumours lately,its the new unibody Leica T.

this what they take out the whole body of Leica T. unibody single block of Al. I'm getting one no matter what kinda junk will it be, the design is beautiful. I know I have Leitz acquisition syndrome

That's how I see it as well. The 'T' may be for titanium though. It is hardly likely that the new camera will have ground breaking technology, so the unique selling point will be robustness.

Leica has discovered a way to print the M body using a 3D printer. The T 701 unibody is a prototype.

 

In future you choose the material and they will print it out for you - stainless steel, white gold, yellow gold, pink gold, platinum. Why even at a store near you while you wait to get your lens serviced.

Leicabook Pro with dual core and SSD soldered into main board.

Dark chocolate?

[BerndReini]

There will be three new cameras. My guess is the new T system, an S with CMOS sensor, and maybe a DLux.

A face lifted M240 is also a possibility, although I would expect it at Photokina.

Steve Huff is saying "If you come here (his web site) on the 24th you may just see way more than you ever expected to see". Hmm, can't decide if that makes me more excited or less excited.

He's going to add nudity to his usual self-portrait test pictures.

It must be a R240...!!! http://cdn.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/images/icons/icon10.gif

I hate to admit this but I could see myself succumbing to an M240P

Hallo,

Look here: Leica M

[250swb]

You don't know what 'P' stands for yet, and given Leica's insistence on strictly calling the M10 the M how can they call it an MP with another camera having that title already?

 

So 'P' can only mean 'Pretentious' and it will have rhinestones and a pink leather covering and gold plating.

 

Sean Reid says he will be publishing three extensive articles tomorrow, so that is three things to be excited about, ..........or two if you aren't excited about the 'M Pretentious'.
