I looked around to see if this was posted but couldn't find anything. If it was this can be deleted with my apologies.

From DigitalCameraInfo.com

It's pretty extensive descriptive video/interview of Christian Erhardt (Marketing Manager at Leica) by DigitalCameriaInfo.com

Oh No.. it's Robin Liss... fortunately, she let the Leica guy do most of the talking....

Sensor cleaning menu item? Has this been discussed on RFF????

Don't know Robin Liss, but I agree; even a cursory experience leads me to be thankful she was mostly out of the picture.

I was wondering the same thing about the sensor bunnies that inevitably show up with digital cameras with interchangeable lenses.. I have a Canon 20d and from time to time the sensor needs a cleaning.

So it has sensor cleaning capabilities.. big deal. It's not going to be a deal maker or breaker...

It's just a setting to hold the shutter open to access the sensor - like every DSLR has.

Usually a sensor cleaning mode also turns off power to the CCD, so it doesn't build up a static charge that would hold onto dust while you're cleaning it.
