sdai Posted September 13, 2008 Share #21 Posted September 13, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Well, if you jump out of 35mm FF and then medium format, obviously we'll get a view camera but I'm sure that's not what you're talking about. I'd wholeheartedly welcome a modular design and it's obviously many forum members' favorite as well, different configurations can share some core parts and/or modules, and you can accommodate various mounts with corresponding mirror boxes, color/B&W, 35mm/645 digital backs, IR cut filter, anti alias filter etc can all be optional and fully configuratble, not to mention prism, finder, accessories. Auto focus or manual focus can be optional. One can choose a configuration without a mirror box as well. Leica already has a lot of expertise in this, adding some help from the Sinar folks, there'll be many things can be done. One thing needs to be pointed out is that Leica's root is in 35mm, history has proven it's the best compromise between image quality and portability, many of us do not want to build another system from ground up and choose to stay with Leica because of the R and M systems' uncompromising quality, their uniqueness and its sounding record of backward compatibility. If a modular design is the core of a next generation of a-la-carte, please, keep 35mm FF and 100% R compatibility as a viable option, and we can take it from there.

tranquillity Posted September 13, 2008 Share #23 Posted September 13, 2008 The D3 chip in a R4 body. well, a D3 chip in G1 type (mirror-less) body would allow All my precious Leica optics, M and R, another lease of life - specially the Summilux 35 Asph... perhaps Cosina is getting ready to do this? dreams... what dreams!
