Great write-up David!! And the questions/answers also.
David, the part I find fascinating is the simplification of cameras comment, and the reason I love my M9. Could you ask if there is any push for simplification in the successor to the M240? Perhaps , my question is more request, so I am going to jump in with both feet. As features are added the complexity increases quickly, the M240 is feature rich and the complexity also followed. If anyone can simplify it is Leica, my frustration is the button pushing for playback with evf/screen firstly and the menu system secondly. A simplification could go something like this, attach the camera to a computer, allow choices of menu items visible/hidden. If I don't use a menu item I could then hide it and never have to deal with it, thus simplifying. Of course simplifying initially adds complexity by creating one more process but the field shooting would be simplified by less menu choices. I am sure Leica could come up with a better solution, perhaps in a firmware update?

David,
Always nice to read your comments on this every two year show. No one else seems to capture the feelings, as well as the insight. The metal shades on the new lenses is most welcome, but I am having a difficult time understanding how the lens cap can fit over both the lens and the shade. I must be missing something?

The great cub reporter is at it again!
Your screed is a pleasure to read and I look forward to your upcoming report on the Leica S (typ 007).

David, thank you for the show report. Lots of stuff to cover. On a side note, which camera did you use for the photos of the event?

David…thanks for the well written and informative report. Enjoyed reading it and look forward to the next chapter.

Excellent write-up David!
Perhaps the new MM will be like the M 60, without the LCD.
And certainly agree with Mr. Jesko von Oeynhausen comment and I quote
“From a quality perspective, there is no need for improvement”.
