Right, hands-up who was expecting the Leica 'M Mini' (or Mini M) to be a mirrorless compact system camera with interchangeable lenses. It doesn't look like this is one and neither does it have a full frame sensor - it's APS-C. Basically it's a grown up Leica X2...

No hand up here. Leica does have a minimal production capacity compare to Asian competators, so they seem to create products that will not stress their capacities
