To me that's good news because a DSLR has been my weapon of choice for a few years now. And I use pro level gear but am very fond of amateur level gear. Which tonight I used. Its very competitive so my choices are very good. Amazing bang for the buck. Leica needs to join it. With an 1.5 or close to it crop sensor or a full frame sensor. For its existing lenses. I think its about to. I think the camera is there and they're waiting to announcer it at just the right time for the consumer thing to work out well for them. Mark William Rabiner rabinergroup.com
