What I do know is that it's a fixed lens camera. So, lovely as that lens looks, that's the only one that you'll have on that camera. It's not M mount or R mount.
Also, the Leica lenses that have been put on Panasonic digitals to date aren't made in Germany, Canada, Portugal, or any other place that Leica has a factory. They're designed by Leica, licensed to Panasonic, and who knows who Panasonic gets to make them. Not that that's such a big deal, but if you're paying big bucks for a "Leica" lens, maybe you want to know that sort of stuff.
If I find out anything more over at LUG (like maybe price?), I'll let ya know.
cheers, frank

Manual focus ring on the barrel (hopefully - a_realy_manual_focus ring), aperture ring, shutter dial on the top plate, "classic" (familiar) design (not the most important feature, but still :-)
