Right from the start, we have had the "rule" that an image is 
acceptable when it is taken using Leica equipment, so Leica body and 
leica mounted lens or other body with Leica glass has always been fine. 
Therefore, and to be honest not wanting to cut off the nose to spite 
the face, Digital images created with Leica glass are suitable.

Cheers and I look forward to a "big" year.
