[Leica] Leica Digital M -- a system

[lucien_vd at mac.com (lucien_vd@mac.com)]

Bob,

I doubt very much that we will ever see a full frame M Digital using  
the current lenses, specially the wide angle.

A full frame will require new bigger telecentric lenses.

That specially adapted 1,33 CCD was the only solution to maintain the  
Leica quality, and still there will be some vignetting.
