New Leica: Digital and Film

I know this isn't a Nikon (in some ways it's better... I mean hell... It's a Leica)... but if you haven't seen this at dpreview, you should... a pre-production Leica that sports 10mp and can take both digi and film.... finally...

I have seen this but I have to sell something first, even the Mamiya ZD is not closed to my lust.

Very nice Leica with digiback!!!! I have to wait for my kids to finish their study at Uni first.

Very impressive, Leigh. No problem with mirror lock up when cleaning the ccd. I would imagine very, very expensive.
