Further to the discussion of the new Zeiss camera, it is starting to look
very much like an M body with a Zeiss badge. One photo, in particular,
shows strap lugs that look very much like those of an M. See

cut and paste if the link is spread over more than one line.Other pictures 
can
be found at .../...25.jpg & /,,,27/jpg. A Biogon lens is also shown in the
main picture. 

I still don't understand why Zeiss did not buy Leica out a few years ago.
It would have been the best fit for both.
