Assuming it's real - initially sceptical but looks more and more convincing - the conveniently out-of-focus iso dial looks like it runs to 6400 with a low or 100 and maybe a 'HI' setting. I think the lack of markings on the on dial makes sense if 'burst' mode and self timer are menu based. I for one don't need to be reminded which switch turns it on.....

That red mark really looks like a P to me.

 

I hope I'm wrong.

If you view the shot at 200%, you will see somewhat clearly the ISO markings from 100 to 6400. The black letter is probably P for push and the red is A, but that's just a guess.

I assumed the other letter is "M" to manually set the ISO via LCD screen - like ISO 12800, etc.

 

I really, really, really, really, really want to see a picture of hot whether there are pins for the Visoflex 20 or similar.  

 

The camera looks the same size as the M-240 (to my eyes).  The right side around the directional pad changed.  I don't think there is any way to know from this image if the new LCD is 3" or 3.2" as rumored.  

 

The round piece around the OVF definitely looks larger.  That could mean new diopter lenses are needed if the opening is actually larger.  New 1.25x, etc...  

 

No plastic "doors" or "covers" atop for GPS or WiFi, so if those feature are there, it'll via the EVF - which I don't like because that means the EVF will be needed for embedding GPS.

The rumors about the larger viewfinder might be true. Looks like the Zeiss Ikon.

I agree with your reading of the numbers, but the more I look, the less clearly I can see the other characters.

 

 I think you've confirmed that the M10 is not far away now, which is a step forward.

definitely slimmer.  hold up your 240 and view it at the same angle as the image.  then see how the shutter speed  dial and and on off switch line up with the body.  youll find the a lot more available space on your 240

Where is the pop-up flash? :)

 

Seriously.... the real question is this: If I buy this under the cover then how long will it take before my wife notices that I have sold M240 and bought a new camera?

The ISO knob will give it away immediately. No chance I'm afraid. I have the same dilemma as you :D
