I see that Epson have announced a 6MP digital rangefinder body, in collaboration with Cosina, who make the Voigtlander range. The lens mount is for Leica M & L series. Magnification factor: 1.5X. Let's see, No Reflex Mirror, No Pentaprism. There must be a considerable saving compared with a Digital SLR. And the price? 3000 Euros (GBP 2000) list! Of course, this may change before the launch date. Makes a 10D seem positively cheap. Cheers Keith --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
