[LRflex] Re: More Leica tid-bits

Hello David.

I wonder why it would not possible to build an equivalent of the the Flat, 
screen only, Panasonic DMCLX1BB with a LRFlex mount....

Let's hope tha Leica names the new Reflex R-AD as in Hexadecimal A is 
equivalent to decimal 10. A R-AD With a RED dot.... Bad joke from some 
Computer Guy....


LEt's hope Panasonic makes it to a reasonable price...

Cheers.
