As long as the firmware does not mess up the raw date too much, then you are talking about a 36MP box that cost less than $3000 that takes Leica lens, It's $5000-$6000 less than an M T240 with more pixels to boot. And when using on a tripod, any operational inefficiencies is negligible. This is why I am interested in it. I have the M9 and I use it for landscape, but it does leave something to desire when my other landscape camera is now a 4x5 or 617. Even the Xpan is inadequate in that sense.
