(Same post as on L*Camera Forum
Most of us have heard that Leica will introduce a Medium Format SLR system at Photokina.
If at the same time the "R" product line is discontinued (yes, an ugly word, but things like that happen, see DMR), what will you do with your R equipment:
- If you have a R8/R9-DMR combo, will you keep shooting that combo or switching in the nearer future to a different digital system and selling off your R stuff ? (Since there will be no new R lenses in the future; and the DMR is already discontinued)
- If you have been waiting for a R10 to use with your existing R lenses, will you sell off your R8, R9 and the lenses?
Just curious what others think.
The rumors I heard is that the R line will indeed by discontinued; but we all know more soon...
