GXR Mount Presentation Video!

[ginger]

I think this was taken in Europe. You get to see the M-Mount in all its full glory. Plus the presenter mentions some basic specs:

I can't wait to fit my 50mm and 35mm Hexanons to this thing!

Ha, it's Martin Shock from Ricoh. We met during Photokina 2008. Nice bloke. As for the M mount alone, I don't know? It seems pretty the same as the last year's mockup? I mean I see no difference? Let's hope we will soon see the module in action

Can't see beer unit there? :lol:

i just saw the video, and is it really the mockup module they used the last year? it looks kind of smaller and looks more refined..

 

[ginger]

Yes. I think it's just a mockup unit, not even a non-working prototype. Like what Pavel says - we need to see a working unit in action.

But the GXR body looks really sweet with the Voightlander lens attached! I can see my M8 being stuffed into the dry cabinet once the Ricoh M-Nount comes out! Lol!

Looks as if nobody really looked at the video: It clearly states "PMA Australia" (maybe this is just another perception paradox...). I have to admit that I was biased, because I knew this already from dpreview...
