as long as we are guessing the eventual R10 cost, when it arrives
optimistically in 2010, or maybe later, I will guesstimate
$10,000-12,000 USD, maybe more if it appears later...
That's a lot of dollar deflation, which, given the US monetary mess,
seems
very likely :(
and truly Doug, dollar deflation is only a small part of my
admittedly, possibly very naive approximation... it's mostly based on
the M8 cost two years ago, what I got it for, and M8.2 cost now....and
the estimated cost of the S2...a guess, and its more realistic
extrapolate maybe 6-12 months from now when the S2 appears...
and if the S2 might ultimately be priced at $20,000 or higher in USD,
then making a rough guess where an R10 might come in ...
well that's enough BS from me right now... we'll just wait and see,
I'll just go and take a few photos...
what I find sad but possible, is that even with my nice R lenses,
Leica's strategy has managed to make an R10, even if it materializes,
basically unaffordable...
