PIXII New french M Mount digital rangefinder announced

The documentation says it will have 5.5m pixels. Which suggests to me it will be just a vanity toy for hipsters. Or according to Google translate "jouet de vanité pour hipsters"

It is really interesting I agree. I gather the camera functions without a smart phone in its orbit if required?
 
From the specs this might not need a mechanical shutter as they specify that the sensor uses a global shutter.

Two major points missing - release date and price. Once we know that, we can move on to the more minor points like how we can get the images out and how good they will be. And even then, it's not a Leica so it really won't be worth buying.

At least for me,

I have a Iphone 7+ and it’s larger than any camera lcd.

The added bonus being the cheaper editing apps that are now capable of handling raw strange enough this is definitely the future of cameras. Advanced communication with our personal computers we carry everywhere.

Hope it’s fairly priced and not some pipe dream scam to drum up page views.
