An interesting note:

In the editor's column in Shutterbug a couple of months ago, the
editor mentioned that he knew of a major Japanese camera company,
known for their pro SLR equipment, that was going to be coming out
with a new pro-oriented 35mm rangefinder camera with interchangeable
lenses.  I seem to recall he said it would be within a year.

It will be interesting to see who it is, what they build and how
affordable it is.  And what effect this has on Leica.
