“What Stefan did tell me was that I could SQUASH any rumor of a Leica
mirrorless m4/3 camera. He pointed to the M9 and said “We already have
a mirrorless camera”. He also told me that M4/3 is NOT in the future
for Leica as the quality is just not there.”

Given that Leica managed to make an outrageously expensive 35mm format
camera (M9) that for sensor performance managed to score below the 4
years older Canon 5d, and several aps-c dslrs costing less than $1k, on
DXOMark tests - he's probably right. A 4/3 camera made by Leica would
probably suck.

This, from the folks who brought us the legendary M8.

What a stupid comment!
