[Leica] Be prepared for a glut of Leica bodies Epson R-D1 etc.

[richard-lists at imagecraft.com (Richard)]

My predictions:
- LOTS of M6s and special edition M7s, MPs and Epson R-D1s will be put on 
the market
- There will be a big run on Noctilux because now everyone and their 
brothers want that 75@1 look. Most people still can't focus it worth a damn 
but what the heck
- Leica will sell as many as they can make and if you are not on the 
waiting list now, may as well wait until Summer 2007
- There will be lots of nitpicks on
== it's only 10 MP
== it's 1.3x crop
== without the rewind crank, I can't hold the thing securely
== My 1.3MP, Walmark digital camera takes better pictures!

- More than one person will plop down $15K and buy the M8, a Noct, plus a 
few fast lens and then sell the whole shebang in 3 days because they don't 
like rangefinder after all or lack of auto-focus or lack of XYZ l
