(ich werde diese für das englische Schwester L-Mount-Forum verfassten Berichte von 2018 hier noch ins Deutsche nach und nach übersetzen)
Ich war am Dienstag auf dem Photokona Pressetag. Es war ein aufregender Tag. Auch wenn immer irgendwelche Gerüchte brodeln, weiß man nie so genau, was einen wirklich erwarten wird.
Also betrat ich den Presseraum für die Leica Pressekonferenz und sah direkt auf der linken Seite das hier:
O.k., dachte ich mir, jetzt ist es wohl kein Gerücht mehr
Dann startete die Pressekonferenz.
The introduction from Matthias Harsch, CEO of Leica
Of cause Leica starts to talk about the less interesting products first, to hold the tension
Leica Sofort in black.
The Leica App is actually very interesting. If it really delivers, that would be a relief. I hope that this app will not only work with Leica cameras, but also with Pansaosonic and Sigma cameras, which share the L-Mount in the future. o.k., taht might be too optimistic. But the Panasonic app is also really good.
Then Leica talked about their new Medium Format camera. The Leica S3
And finally we got the Leica Roadmap for Leica SL lenses. There are 6 lenses already available. Another 2 Leica SL lenses will come in 2019 and another 3 SL lenses in 2020.
This is important to know, because these lenses fit the L-Mount and in case you buy a Panasonic or Sigma camera in 2019 with L-Mount, they can also use these lenses. This is like MFT with Olympus and Panasonic.
And we have it in front of us. All 3 together from Sigma (Kazuto Yamaki, CEO), Leica (Andreas Kaufmann, major shareholder) and Panasonic (Tetsuro Homma, CEO) on the same table to discus the reasoning why they decided to make this L-MOUNT alliance.
After the press conference the important photo with all three together.
