[Leica] A new M from Canon

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

This camera is all about having the pancake on it and having it in your
pocket. With you everywhere. Totally different  FD Form differential than a
small cheap DSLR.
They'd be places you'd be too embarrassed to bring your Rebel. Lots of
places. A mirrorless body is a flat piece of nothing. That's the elegance of
it which I like. Ultra simplicity. And much smaller size and weight than the
smallest of DSLR's.
My D40x by the way I just saw today weigh's less than my M6. Its a DSLR.
But its not going in near as many pockets as a mirrorless compact camera.
And when a MCC has as large a sensor as say my D40 is there a reason the
"IQ" (I looked it up) would come out less?
The Intelligence Quotient I mean. Assuming its in its proper place in its
Input Queuing . That that I'm going to drive you crazy with
Incremental Quantization
I do think its an intelligent answer which deserves an
Intelligent Question.
