why don't you get this.. the camera is not for you ok. it is a stills camera with video for an existing target market. not someone that seems to be getting angry that leica are not giving you a baby alexa for 600 dollars. plenty of plastic out on the market for you : ) i say it again i trust leica more as image lens and camera makers based on nearly 100 years of history and proven excellence. moan to them i suggest you contact leica and tell them they are ignorant idiots. suggest to them where the non existant camera project has gone wrong. these are not sony or canon. i bet you it would be super easy to speak to [b] [size=4]Jesko von Oeynhausen lecture him pretend you are an interested rich kid.[/size][/b] who knows they may let you join the beta test prototype camera team.

Andrew, you can't be serious, you are a Canon Basher, and you don't bash Leica? (...) No 1080/60p50p? Moire? Hello, nearly 7k in price(!!) MJPEG(!!) you have know idea what the image will be like. leica has a reputation defined by the purity and perfection of optics and cameras. maybe the greatest reputation of all companies. they go slow.they do not join cost races to dilute top line product ranges. they wait for the best sensor,they wait for the technology to exist in a refined form before they integrate into top range products. let us not beat them up for a camera that does not yet exist apart from tester cameras. rumour is the test model is already pretty handy. these products are for super serious pros with money or the very well off that want the best. plenty of cheap plastic cameras around for the price of a leica lens hood. i have a leica digilux 2 from 8 years ago leica replaced the sensor last year for free. leica are not going to release the most important camera for them in years that is flawed imager. that camera clearly is of interest to existing customers it is not trying to attract gh2 users. this camera is only a good thing and in the future i believe they will make other products with video. i would suggest people email leica direct with ideas for future directions. this company is small enough to listen to valid ideas. lets wait and see..for most it is not relevent because of price point but for some it is great news.

I've got deja vu here. Boss of company appears on message board to belatedly explain delay without really committing to a firm delivery date, throws a bone with some new features that will be included thanks to this delay and everyone thanks him profusely. RED really did start a revolution didn't it? ;)
