well. the multifunction button looks like a SNES controller from the 90s.

well. the viewfinder looks like it's from the 80s, and the red dot from the 70s.

This picture has popped up before. i believe it came from a "Leica World News" article, a year or so ago, that talked about what a future digital M may look like (key word here is "may").

We'll know in about a montth, if not sooner, what the camera really looks like.

Nah, that's not quite right.

John, since you claim to have seen the camera, can you say anything about any secondary LCD panel on the camera to replicate the information in the R-D1 dial cluster - memory, battery, quality and so on? Levers on the front of the camera? Anything in place of the rewind knob?

You mentioned it has no red blob, presumably, this was removed to disguise it?

Is the screen offset to the left on the rear panel?

Anything else you'd like to share with us?
