Use the same bodies and optics for both digital and film-based shooting.<br><br>I'm anxiously awaiting to see what Leica will come up with for the Digital M rangefinger.  If all it is is something with the sensor quality of a (say) Canon 20D in a Leica-M sized box with a Leica-M quality rangefinder, I'll be all over it.

And please don't abbreviate "Digital M" as "M".  Leica M rangefinders already exist, and have for decades.  It doesn't make sense to say "many models released after 1963 can be retrofitted with the coding for use with the M".  They already work with M-series rangefinders--that's what they were designed for!  You really need to say "for use with the Digital M".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mph]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2006 1:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Leica coding lenses to prep for Digital M]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/leica-coding-lenses-to-prep-for-digital-m-slr/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/leica-coding-lenses-to-prep-for-digital-m-slr/</guid><description><![CDATA[At last to have a range of really good lenses for digital in something the size of a 35mm rangefinder camera, a digital M would be the perfect camera to carry round. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sanjay]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2006 3:05PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
