I'll take a stab a the translation (let me know how I did Lucien):

Our prefered deluxe compact is going to see an essential change. In effect
not only will the shutter surpass 250th of a second but in addition this
Hexar will have interchangeable lenses too! And the icing on the cake is
that it might be able to benefit from a compatibility between this Konica
and a certain Leica M family!!! (I don't quite understand the part about
the microcosme) and we will return to discuss this very soon.
