I just don't get the "Digital M" concept. I can only imagine that such a
configuration amounts to a P&S with all the drawbacks of a dSLR and none
of the advantages of either a dSLR, a camera with an EVF, or even a
digital P&S with a zoom lens. If Leica's management is putting their hopes
on a "Digital M", that just might finish them off.
