There's a picture of the Nikon in the latest issue of the French magazine
'Chasseur d'Images'. I don't have a flat bad scanner I'm afraid, otherwise I
would upload it.

Ain't the rumors fun?

A French website said Nikon may be working on some kind of Hexar-like
Digital Rangefinder for use with DX Nikon lenses. There would have to be a
dial on the camera to change apertures since the DX lenses are without
aperture rings.

Canon either has one or two new digi SLR's coming at more affordable prices.

Maybe the digi Leica rumors can start up again?
