Maybe in the far past, but now with modern CAD and casting most likely a matter of just plugging in some new software and letting it rip. As well, the D still has the small rangefinder window so they would have to recast it anyway for an EVF version. Did they? Which top plates were designed just for the D and not used on any other models? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevejack Posted March 20 Share #862 Posted March 20 13 hours ago, T25UFO said: I just completed a Leica online survey, with the main focus on in-camera image processing. It wasn't specific to the M but I wonder whether Leica is gauging reaction before introducing something in the next M or with firmware updates? The processing options were: (1) Ultra Dynamic Range; (2) Living Memories rather than static photos. Similar to what is currently available on the iPhone; (3) Individual Looks. Maybe a further development of Leica Looks; (4) Night Mode; (5) Super Resolution Mode. My overall response was 'no thanks' just keep the camera simple. Given the current direction of travel, Leica Lux etc, I do hope the software department is not taking over from the camera department. Christ... I hope not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started after Leica Lux was one of the few "innovation" they mentioned in their 100 Year statement, and got worse after this survey. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkmoore Posted March 21 Share #865 Posted March 21 I hope that the M-EVF has a design aesthetic that improves upon the Q and new X100RF. I think both are far less attractive then the M with rangefinder window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An EVF camera does not need a rangefinder window nor a viewfinder one and it is hard to imagine any alternative use for a fake one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
