Almost everyone else is going the route of optical excellence building gargantuan but very capable lenses. Leica is taking the route that software can take the already formidable performance of their lenses to a higher plane without forcing us to carry 2 kilos of glass. I truly appreciate the ability of the Sony G Master lenses over a 61mp sensor. The ability to crop 80% and still have a good image: I very much tire of carrying the 3 kilos of gear around my neck for a body and one lens. If Leica ever builds a 50+mp M I will be on the waiting list so fast.... I decided not to acquire the QII after much thought as I would rather pay 8-9K and have the ability to change lenses as I am still a 50mm kind of photographer. However, if the Q II came with a version starting at 35-40mm there goes another 5K into the bag.
