And the salivating of people who are waiting with great anticipation >> for this digital M.<<< Oh I don't doubt the flock are waiting in great anticipation drooling all over the place. That is until they see it? Or have one in hand when the usual whining will begin as happens when any new Leica piece is released....;-) "it's too tall! "it doesn't feel like an M! "it's too big in my hands! "it's not the right look of black! "it's not the right chrome look! "it's viewfinder is dim! "it's viewfinder is cluttered! "it's not what they said it would be! "it's nothing like I expected! "it's toooo expensive! "it's red dot is too prominent!
