I think this is the new N1.  Interesting system.  Can use the
older Zeiss manual focus lenses or the new Autofocus lenses.
And apparantly the system works in such a way that you can
switch from autofocus to manual by grabing the focusing ring
on the lens and the camera relinquishes focusing to you.
Also, I believe there is going to be digitial 6 megapixel
back or maybe its an entire body.

Only problem is that it looks like the camera and new
lenses are going to be at least as expensive as Leica and
maybe MORE.
