Leica M8 with full format sensor?
Sunday, February 3rd, 2008The other day, Leica announced an upgrade program: for a substantial amount of money - but still less than the price of a new camera - M8 owners will get a quieter shutter and improved display window. The programme, which will start this coming autumn, is interesting in itself; it is good customer policy. There are surprisingly few, or rather none at all, upgrade programmes in the DSLR field: people should instead buy wholly new cameras every other year or so, to stay up to date with the rapidly developing digital technology.
Now, the latest rumour to come out of the PMA is about a possible full-frame sensor for the Leica M8.
