It seems that the new Fuji folder will be made along with Cosina, with both a "Bessa III" and a Fuji version. Marketed come summer... I think I like it!!

There are three other threads on the Fuji/Voigtlander 6 by 7 folder.
One look at the BJP photos and I can tell you that the camera under glass is a mock up without a working leaf-shutter. In fact, it looks like they put a disc where the shutter blades would normally be located.
I expect the production model will have an electronically controlled leaf-shutter similar to the Plaubel Makina 67.

Did you mean to say an auto exposure mode?
I can clearly see a manual focus ring in one of the photos.

Yes the detail in the BJP write up said it would come with auto focus.
Wow......

Bet ya dollars to donuts that BJP got the autofocus part wrong. Does anyone see a space for a piezo electric motor on the lens?

.... and what are the chances that this journalist has used a RF folder as part as his regular repertoire in the past five or ten years?

Yes that's just a mistake or a typo. An SPD sensor is for the light meter. It's aperture priority auto exposure.
