All this points out is? Just how stupid all of you are wasting time over all this bull-shit of meaningless bullshit! Get over it! If it doesn't have anything to do with a LEICA CAMERA????????????? WHO THE HELL CARES???? Does it really matter to the "captured moment in milli-seconds whether you captured it or not??????? I can't imagine I just wasted time typing my words none of you people are bright enough in big heated conversation over? Is really nothing more than a huge bucket of DIGI shit! Get over it! Because absolutely none? Yes none of you have the economic power with LEICA- Germany to affect anything they are doing or are going to make a change! LOOK! GET OVER IT! Anything we espouse on the LUG regarding changes, sizes, lenses, digi-stuff we are sounding off to a brick-wall! Regardless of how "MUCH YOU MAY THINK YOUR WORDS MAYBE OF IMPORTANCE?" Get it through your head anything espoused here is quite meaningless!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah I know that's mean! "TOUGH!" May I offer? Forget all the techie "BULLSHIT" and just go out and enjoy the elements of picture taking with your LEICA!" CHEERS, dR.

Its enough to make me try to get a job in the post office. A CMOS back makes your Hassy not just a studio and tripod camera but a digital version of the Hassy film camera like a 35mm DSLR Is to an SLR. In other words you can use it on the street or indoors or at dusk hand held. A medium format camera whose iso tops off at 200 would be a lot more constricting and limiting than you'd think. There's also a limit on longer exposures I think. Personally I'm ok with tripod use but it would be nice to do with my Hassys what I used to do with them and and what I do now with 35mm format DSLR's. Almost. I used a lot of 220 iso 800 film in my Hassy's. Color neg.
