There is no way they're ever going to accept the reality of thesituation. Imagine how they'd howl if they found out the magnifciation of their M lenses justwent up by a factor of 1.7. And it simply is not possible to put a full frame CCD chip in thecamera. Why do they think the Digilux 2 has such a small chip, with even such a short focallenght lense? Did they see the diagram of the inside of this camear where the last lenselemetn is almost touching the sensor? The M7 is the future of M, not the Digilux 2 - for a long time to come.
