Possibly Summicron in basic concept. The "R" variant with "perspective control". A very new "pro" look. 2/ something new between the Leica M and the Minilux, a "glorified" Minilux but not quite a Leica M [ ! ! ! ] . Ttl flash, f/2.8, less plastic, looks more akin to the Leica R8, point and shoot autofocus, autowind, waterproofed to >10 meters: the MiDilux - UW . . . Composite outer shell. Fool proofed. Child friendly. 3/ a LEICA slide scanner with laser autofocus and dynamic color balance, fast CCD ... and LEICA internal optics. Computer 1/3 height variant. Desktop self-contained variant.
