[LRflex] Re: Leica to abandon 4/3rds - how good will a Leica R AF system be??

Douglas, 
    The digital film replacement that Alex just mentioned 
would be a solution to that problem if they could 
get a full frame sensor that worked with the short lenses.
     It woudn't sell any bodies for Leica, but it would 
still sell lenses.  If the sensors worked well, people 
would probably want them for several bodies, and 
would upgrade as they got better, without any negative 
quality associations with the body or lenses.  It would 
also support the value of the existing product base.
