"..Leica reported to be planning mirrorless interchangeable lens camera

Leica's CEO is reported to have confirmed the company will introduce a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera system. The British Journal of Photography (BJP) quotes Alfred Schopf as saying: "It's more than an idea. You will see something at the next Photokina [trade show]." He also told them that it will use an: "APS-C sized sensor at least." The move would see the German company (which already makes the fixed-lens APS-C-sensor X1 model, pictured) join Panasonic, Olympus, Sony and Samsung in the large-sensor mirrorless market - the fastest growing camera segment in most countries. (From BJP)..."

 

I love my little Panasonic GF1 and carry it as another camera with my Leica RF's.

Mirrorless cameras are the greatest thing since Barnack designed the Leica. We should all look forward to this new Solms breakthough which is due to be shown at the next Photokina.
