He told me that Leica is entering into an agreement with Matsushita to provide Leica lenses on Panasonic video cameras (like Zeiss does with Sony video cameras) and he "thought" that the new smaller Leica R would be with Minolta cooperation as was done with the R3 and the CL. Fast turn around on the Minilux - it will be ready in a week. Cheers, Howard.
