What I find amazing is the 1.53x  lens factor.  None of you out there who
were just a few weeks ago saying if Leica comes out with a M Digital with
less than a 1x lens factor it would be Totally unacceptable, are not
complaining one bit about Epson/Cosina doing it.  Not One Complaint.  The
only comment so far on this is I can live with it.  Interesting...  If
Leica had done this very same thing right now, you would be screaming and
calling for a revolt and overthrow of the company.

What shutter?  Why do you need a shutter?  The thing is
digital......everything is electronically timed.

The only purpose for a thing that looks like a shutter is a sensor cover
for
when you change lenses.. prevents dust from getting on the sensor,  Hardly
used for every picture.

The film rewind gadget amazes me even more......

There have been several discussions in the past about Leica being neck
jewelry for the rich.  The Cosina DIgital brings that discussion to the
forefront again. Gadgets attached so that your digital camera LOOKS LIKE a
film camera.  I find it sad,
