You're exactly right, Tom. That Panasonic comes with a fixed lens - no interchangeability.

I suppose that's not such a horrible thing for a rangefinder, though. Lots of RF folks don't routinely shoot longer than a 90mm. Almost never longer than 135mm. Wider than 28mm is quite routine, though.

But on the whole, for a rangefinder, the 28-90 (35mm equivalent) range ain't all that bad.

I think that camera will do very well, once released...

cheers,
frank

Ah ha! A digital camera with analog controls. What a quaint idea! I like all that manual capability. I wonder how big the sensor is, and how much it is going to cost?

However, I doubt that it has interchangeable lenses. And note that it says 28-90mm equivalent lens, not 28-90mm lens.
