Mind you, the party line was that a full-frame M was 'impossible' until quite recently, so whether there's any commitment at Solms to the digital future of the R series is anyone's guess. And were we not promised 'an alternative R solution' by Herr Daniel? No sign of it yet, and I'm not holding my breath. In the meantime I'd better get out my pair of SL2s and exercise them with old-fashioned film while there's still some to buy.
