What is the Mini M ?

[CameraQuest]

OK RFF,

What will the Mini M turn out to be ?

You may have MULTIPLE choices.

I have read from a FF fixed fast zoom,
to a rebranded Panasonic GX2!

 

[Spicy]

A disappointment

 

[ferider]

Overpriced.

 

[Al Patterson]

Another camera I want but cannot afford...

 

[L Collins]

A 1.5 crop sensor, EVF,no rangefinder, M mount, traditional M form factor.

Either that or a digital M5!

I am personally hoping they ARE making a Digital Retro Leica D-CL....
But with a m4/3 sensor/mount. an APS-C sensor would make the body look like the lens overweighted Sony.
That is my dream.

A 1.5 Croped Digital M5?
Well, with the M8 Discontinued... is a spot open for a Croped Digital M?

I wouldn't be surprised, given the successes of the D-lux/LX parallels, to see a 1.5 or even 1.3x variant on the Pana GX2. But with M "appointments" and a price point to match.

But why didn't they steal a whole page from Austin Powers, and call it the Mini-ME? Yuk yuk.

Yes... "Mini-me" was the 1st thing that hit my mind also..

A fixed lens 14-60mm f/2.8 m4/3 sensor with Pannys new 18mp senso

The Digilux-2 with an APS sensor. Possible compromise on the zoom range or the lens speed.
Updated EVF.

$3750 (us)

It'll either be

a digital APS-C Barnack

or

a re-badged Ricoh GXR with fixed M-mount


😛

 

[Matus]

this is easy:
- It will take M-mount lenses (otherwise why the name),
- NO optical rangefinder (too expensive)
- either FX or APS-C (not sure about this one).
- it will have an EVF (obviously) - either built-in or clip-on.

Any more questions? 😛

So either a re-badged Fuji X-pro1 or a re-badged Ricoh GXR

I think it is going to be something like the X1/X2 but with M mount.

out of my price range at least 🙄

Digilux 2, Part 2.

 

[Joosep]

First compact APS-C camera with a zoom lens ?

Leica X2 with a zoom lens! That's my guess.

 

[Austerby]

It'll be like an X100s but with interchangeable lenses and full frame. And around USD1000 I hope.

That would shoot Fuji's fox.
