Subject: [Leica] Small Camera/Folded Optics

Digital camera technology is starting to break the mold of 
traditional camera design.  Here's something that you would have 
never seen in a consumer film camera - folded optics.

Leica is not entirely sitting on its traditional hands.  Makes one 
wonder what a Leica folded-optic zoom camera with an APS or 4/3rd 
sized sensor might look like.  Might that be the direction the much 
speculated about Digilux 3 would take?
