LeicaRumors reports about a video posted by LovelightTV of their visit to Leitz Park. At the 12:10 minute mark of the video, the Leica representative confirmed the already rumored Leica S mirrorless medium format mirrorless camera:
- Mirrorless medium format
- To be announced within 2 years
- New mount and a new range of lenses
- New adapters to mount the entire range of Leica lenses.
Here is the video and the translation:
"(le moyen format) Qui a été arrêté mais qui va avoir un successeur d’ici deux ans, c’est un scoop, voilà, alors ce sera un moyen format hybrid avec une nouvelle monture et une nouvelle gamme d’optique sud laquelle on pourra mettre des bagues d’adaptations pour mettre des optiques SL, des optiques M, toute la gamme des optiques Leica"
"The medium format, which has been discontinued but will have a successor within two years, (the guy: it is a scoop). So, it will be a hybrid medium format with a new mount and a new range of optics, for which adapters can be used to mount SL lenses, M lenses, and the entire range of Leica lenses.”
Leica is rumored to replace their existing SLR-styled medium format camera line with mirrorless
