LAURENT SLOSSE Posted April 29, 2014 Share #1 Posted April 29, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello everybody First time I post something on this forum I use the R-adapter mount since a few weeks now. It's quite obvious that nothing can replace a R Body. The finder has no zoom like the M coded lenses Raw files don't recognize correctly the apertures. Finaly, I prefer the results with my Digital Modul R with his old (and poor) 10MP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobey bilek Posted July 8, 2014 Share #3 Posted July 8, 2014 And we waited years for this R solution!! I put Nikon mounts on my R glass before the 240 came along and that will be their final resting place. All Leica had to do was have someone make a camera with R mount and a digital sensor. They have gone off the deep end creating fancy stuff nobody wants. The RF will disappear over the next few cycles and they will tell us everyone likes focus peaking. S2 is probably a fine camera, just like Ferrari is a fine car, but just way to expensive. Now we have the T model, Leica, not Ford, that is not even full frame and has no viewfinder, but costs like plenty. Rich soccer mom machine if you ask me. Leicas owner is like our politicians who have no connection to real people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted July 8, 2014 Share #4 Posted July 8, 2014 No we did not wait. In the same sentence that announced the demise of the R system Mr. Daniel said: There will be an R solution in the future, but it will not be made by Leica. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lm_user Posted July 8, 2014 Share #5 Posted July 8, 2014 I think there was a wait or gap between the DMR and the m240. For some - focus peaking is not a solution. I would like to see a reflex camera. Given that Leica already owns the tooling for the R9 and Leica has a R sensor in the M 240 - a real reflex R solution seems possible. However, we know it is very unlikely at this point. I dont mind manual focus R solutions as long as I have a real optical viewfinder - but I expect I might be one of the few willing to accept manual focus in a modern slr. I cant see Leica offering AF with yet another system Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted July 8, 2014 Share #6 Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Umm...the tooling for the R series has long been scrapped. And an R sensor - I fear you have lost me there. Edited July 8, 2014 by jaapv Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lm_user Posted July 9, 2014 Share #7 Posted July 9, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) The M 240 is a full frame sensor compatible with R lenses as marketed by Leica As for scrapping tooling - how do you know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
