It'll be interesting to see what eventually replaces "TBA" in the S2 price listing at B&H, http://tinyurl.com/6oenea

Take a gander at the 35mm mtf.

That would be a 28mm in 35 format.
Does anyone know what the focal length is for the tilt shift lens?

I like the description here,
http://www.s.leica-camera.com/apo-elmar-s-1-3-5-180-mm-cs/
" The lens therefore reliably produces perfect images that don’t require correction with software."
Is that a jab at the new Hasselblad that uses software to correct for lens shortcomings? The Leica mts are far superior to the Hassies, take a look,
