Paul is exactly right here, Frank. I was talking only about
miniaturization and electronics.

Having seen Leica M8 in person and having read that Leica M9 is not much
bigger than M8, I'd say I'd rather wait until D700 squeezes down to K10D

use it.
With the greatest of respect, Boris, if you think any Leica M
rangefinder is comparable to any dslr, you "don't get it" ("it" being
the RF thing).
cheers,

I think Boris only meant that if it's possible to pack M9 technology in an
M8-sized camera, it should be possible to pack D700 tech in a K10D-sized
package. I don't think he meant to equate either camera with rangefinders,
which obviously hold a unique and desirable place of their own.
