True, but every camera, and format may have a specific use, MFT is about pocketability IMHO - I've come to a point when lugging 5kg/10lbs around is sometimes somewhat of a pain :-( Nevertheless I can't see Leica biting into MFT, their current offer satisfies Russians and Chinese oligarchs alright along with German auto manufacturers, why should they bother? I don't see many pros using Leicas anyway, whose needs are also about profitability.
