I was probably too brief with my comment, as I meant to suggest that Leica
could team Panasonic to produce a body that accepted R lenses, just as
they have with the Lumix offerings. As in the case of the digital M
concept, I wonder if there are enough of us R users to warrant the effort
of making a strictly manual-focus digital camera?
