U'd think.

I wonder if it wouldn't be cheaper with today's technology if one  
couldn't come up with a bright, clear viewfinder which would give  
electronic focus confirmation and and avoid the mechanical RF  
linkages, etc.

Or even a manual focus live view with M mount glass - a forward  
thinking creative group should be able to come up with totally new  
concepts for bodies to hang the highly regarded Leica glass on to;  
while still maintaining the M8 + flagship product.

Fond regards,
George
