Looks cool. Maybe, but I thought Leica was hooked on the 35mm film format. It's quite difficult, if not impossible, to obtain the same qualitative results with APS as with 35mm film. Anyway, APS is too little too late. The format is already trying to break through in the marketplace for several years now, but with very moderate success. Its problem is bad timing, it now falls between digital and 35mm, and one doesn't have to be a fortune teller to see that digital will take over the low end quite quickly now.
