In an article over on Die Welt where they interview Alfred Schopf of Leica in, "The Japanese are shooting themselves in the foot from a marketing perspective" (in German) are some interesting tidbits. For example, the Leica M-E is selling better than anyone thought; some 300-350 per month. He goes on to say that releasing new cameras every six months only serves to frustrate customers and doubts we'll see 60MP cameras any time soon. The big news is that he confirms what we've told you - successors to the S and X2 cameras will be announced at Photokina 2014!Read more below for details and translation!

Our new (as of early this year) server is awesome and should have no problems next week. But if you'd rather... You can also follow our news on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Flickr, Reddit, Pinterest and YouTube. At the very least, it'll suck less than Apple's live streaming on Tuesday. ;)
