[Leica] WORKING DIGITAL BACK FOR M CAMERAS!

[Peter Dzwig]

Clever idea. Seems a bit crudely executed. He doesn't say anything about 
bit depth or resolution. One of the joys of an M is its compact size, I 
guess the large base is a result of the electronics/battery.

What would be really cool would be if he could get a deal with someone 
to provide it commercially to M users - after it has been refined 
(quite) a bit.

An assembled back delivered is like 300 euros — the great thing about kickstarter is that when you pledge money, the project doesn’t get the money unless it’s fully funded, so you’re not throwing money into the air.
