Photo Rumors: new M mount camera with CCD sensor to be announced soon

[Huss]

I would love to see a new CCD M mount camera,

but I'm wondering if the name plate reads Vaporware.

Even the Konost seems vaporware-ish..

Oh yeah....the Konost. Totally forgot about that (sarcasm inserted here).

Where the hell is Kobayashi-san?

Yep. Almost feels like he is limited by a non-compete or something.

In his latest post on Prosophos, he confirms that it is NOT Leica that's making this camera.

Maybe it will be a digital Zorki with an M lens mount ?

I've long said Sony would be able to do this, they own the Hexar RF designs, they have the FF sensors, but I have always been told that they'd never do such a thing for such a small market share. (from what I hear only about ten people would buy this kind of thing �� ) I'd love a digital Hexar RF, especially one with a CCD.
