[Leica] Leica M10

[Richard Man]

Not quite true that video does not require additional hardware, over that
of Live View.

Now I just need to be rich enough to decide whether to get the GFX50s or
the M10, but since that won't happen, it's all academic.

I am actually leaning toward a CFV-50c. Too bad it cost money.
