Yes the speculation says it is meant to be M mount 6 or 7MP, non-reflex,
branded Nikon and made by Cosina!

Wonder why they wouldn't start with a digital M-mount camera--Nikon seems a
peculiar choice, especially considering that Camera Quest is still trying to
sell the limited edition NHS cameras with the highly desirable 50/3.5 Heliar
(quite a buy for the kit!)

The Australian importer for all of the Voigtlander rangefinder cameras has
just repeated the rumour of a forthcoming 'Nikon' Digital RF. New addition
to the rumour information "It will probably be released with a 45mm pancake
lens as a ready to use kit. I heard that it could be produced by our friends
at Cosina"
