Subject: [Leica] CCDs - one more thing

When someone makes a really good CCD back that will take 
my Leica lenses, it would be nice if the format were 
36X36 mm, NOT 24X36, so as to use the full image circle.
Since the Camera wouldn't need storace space for film
and transport, it could still be quite compact. 50%
more image area would go a long way in terms of improved
resolution. 

Now *that* would be neat! Though I couldn't use the
rectangular shade for my 35 Summilux ASPH...
