[Leica] leica digital back-initial test results

[bdcolen at earthlink.net (B. D. Colen)]

IF it does behave like a somewhat lower res MF back; and IF it produces
the image quality the post says it does, then for professionals who NEED
the image quality, don't need or want autofocus, and who have a major
investment in R equipment, it may indeed be worth the cost. For anyone
else who needs to even think before writing a check, it's over priced.
Because given the uses to which most camera owners put their images, the
image quality difference will not be apparent. 

As to Leica not needing PR because the first year's miniscule production
run is sold out - it is a lack of good PR/Advertising/Marketing savvy -
and they are all inextricably intertwined - that is killing Leica.
