Bizarre iLeica - Leica iPhone camera

Leica i9 concept pairs iPhone, rangefinder body.

According to a report on photoradar.com someone has come up with the bright (!) idea of combining an iPhone with a Leica rangefinder.

Thought it was a very late April 1 joke (yet it was published on April 26).

Forget it, get a proper camera (An M9 would be good) and a separate phone.

The British Journal of Photography reports on accusations that the Daily Mail newspaper used a Flickr image without the photographer's permission.
