A rumor confirmed  a few times that this is under development.  Would enable AF 
PD/AF for Zuikos  by moving the sensor. 
Still rather speculative, but intriguing.  How could AG resist that?  He would 
have to sell the bimmer if necessary.  Floating element lenses wouldn't take 
kindly to focusing this way 
and long teles might require too much movement so likely would require manual 
focus to get close at least then should achieve spot on focus.   Looks like has 
IBIS too.  :-)  We'll see if comes to fruition.
There was a Contax at one time with a similar concept, no?

Ultimate digital OM back in works perhaps, Mike
