No! Actually it sounds very much like the Leica we all know and love ;-)
That M6 brochure was probably planned 6 years ago, by someone who had
nothing to do with the development of any new M cameras (if they exist).
Probably around the time they were just "finalizing" the final technical
details on the M6TTL....
