"A rangefinder company" is about to release a new m4/3 product?

[Spleenrippa]

Haha, maybe CV will release an m4/3 body and pass it off as a digital bessa.

you guys are missing the obvious. $300 Zeiss viewfinders in 4/3 aspect ratio.

Also speculation on the mirrorlessrumors website that a new mirrorless body is to be released. Ive been anxiously awaiting this the last few days.

Nope, an obvious one would be a modern version of Visoflex by Cosina.

Which will give you what you've been missing all this time in this mirror-less system. 😉

Price: $500 of course.

Leica releases the Lumix43, at 3 times the price of the equivalent Panasonic body .... 🙂

But the Panasonic doesn't have a red dot. Or those lovely artistic unreal colours.

Ok I will throw in my guesses here. Fuji, pentax and all them are not joining in. I dont think it will be a zeiss nex lens because I think they would have released that with their sony alpha lenses. CV....naw...I cant see them developing m43 or something like that.

But of course what I really want to see is a Zeiss 50 f1 auto focus for canon mount 🙂

 

[Phantomas]

Ooooh, aaaaah.... I hope I don't have to stay up till 2AM (3AM our time).

 

[Matus]

C'mon guys, give us more than 4/3. Surely the small sensor makes it easy on the rangefinder. Current 4/3 bodies are not that small (safe for Sony with APS-C).

Still - I would wish all 4/3 users a few decent lenses from Voigtlaender.

 

[dfatty]

it's a 25/f0.95.

 

[squirrel$$$bandit]

My money's on a native-mount fast 25 from Voigtlander.

YES!!! I totally called it.

Nice looking lens! not sure if I will spring for it, but wow--it's just what I was hoping CV would do.

Holly cow!

[goffer]

sheeeeeit I want a 25/.95 on 35mm *pouts*

 

[RayPA]

it's a 25/f0.95.

Yeah, that is sweet. I would have liked wider. $1k for instant IS capability. 😀

Tom A., have you been testing this?!!?

 

[Benjamin Marks]

Sweet. [10, 9, 8, 7 . . .]

 

[coelacanth]

I wonder if the image circle is actually optimized for M4/3 sensor (I sure hope so) or more like APS-C size for future adaptation to other bodies in mind.

 

[loneranger]

Howcome I cannt see the picture of it at the 4/3 site. this sounds sweet.

 

[squirrel$$$bandit]

Judging from the evident size, certainly the former.

They should make a Pen-F version though!
