It seems that a potential Leica/Panasonic/Sigma collaboration might not be all that’s officially announced tomorrow at Photokina. It appears that Leica China has posted a photo and description of the new Leica S3 medium format camera to their website a little early.
There isn’t really any other information besides this image and the blurb beside it, which reads (Google translated)… It looks pretty much just like the $19,995 Leica S (Typ 007) on the outside, but we’ve no idea what the differences will be on the inside. There’s been no word if more medium format lenses will come with the new camera. Leica currently has 16 lenses for the Leica S system. I guess we’ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out what the exact specs of the Leica S3 will be. And how expensive it’ll be. [via Nokishita]
