Whether that means more profit or loss I couldn't say ;-) Perhaps there are developments we haven't heard about yet regarding Sinar?? I can say, having shot the camera side by side with my M that the resolved detail and dynamic range are markedly better than with that already excellent system, as you would expect. Peter Karbe has also said that the lenses are their best ever and that they will outresolve their next generation (30x45) sensor too. The 70 I used certainly was remarkable. I think the distraction from moving another line forward would be more mourned by the R folks though ;-) Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 9 March 2014 12:34, Paul Roark <roark.paul at gmail.com> wrote: > Just curious, is the S platform profitable for Leica?
