[Leica] Leica announces SL (Typ 601), a 24MP full frame mirrorless capable of 11fps and 4K video

[Frank Filippone]

Yes, the dumbness or rather lack of, makes an extraordinary difference in usability with R lenses......  and there seem to be no rumors out there..... 

I would suggest, bank robbery, marrying a very rich woman ( your preferences may be different), being adopted by Bill Gates or Warren Buffett, or selling your home and becoming homeless as viable options for money raising strategies.........

$7450, body only.

Since the dedicated R adapter L won't be available until late 2016 I have to wonder if it's something more than a dumb adapter.  Until this adapter becomes available and assuming it operates the auto-diaphragm the SL offers little advantage for me vs. the Sony a7II, at least on paper, other than the viewfinder.  The viewfinder does sound sweet and the UI likewise is more to my liking than the a7II.  I have time to create some cash-raising schemes.
