Having purchased an M10-P seven weeks ago, I'm hardly eager to have a new M released any time soon. On the other hand, after years of (happily) using 43mp Sony A7 series cameras, a 47mp M would be more than welcome.
Leica once said that having a very high resolution is not easy with a rangefinder. I'd rather have a M with 16 or 20 mpix and even higher ISOs.
Or an hybrid viewfinder but once again, Leica said this is not easy and maybe we will have a classic, rangefinder M with a reasonable pixel count and another with an high-resolution sensor and a fully electronic viewfinder.

We just got back from Costa Rica … Mt Arenal and Playa Samara. Strangely enough it was raining in the Arenal Rainforest, but I was able to get a few photos there anyways.

Leaving Bangkok for Paris tomorrow and am thinking picking up the GRIII, which the dealer probably will have for me on Tuesday (closed Monday).
Bear with me on my long rationale on this. I’ve just put my What's in a Haiku book project to bed, so to speak — at least in terms of not shooting any more for it. In two weeks I'm meeting with the team to start the final edit and design of the book, including a designer/editor, a bookbinder and a lithographer. It’s a breakthrough in terms of getting the book published.
All this has started me thinking about the next project. As a first step, in order to formulate a “point of departure”, I’m going in two directions. One direction involves an exercise to simplify the frame by shooting for a while the way Ralph Gibson did for his Quadrants book: with a 50mm lens in bright sun light using a small aperture — and with the subject at one meter distance. I’ll where that takes me. (I'll be using a DR Summicron 50 and a Leica M10).
The other direction would be with the new GRIII, which facilitates a loose and fluid style of one-handed shooting: “no finder shots”, as Moriyama Daido calls them. In anticipation of that, last week I started shooting with the small-sensor GRDIV that I haven't used for some five years. Now I'll have to decide whether to stick with the GRDIV and it's greater depth of field or to go for the new GRIII with its APS-C sensor.
Anyone interested in the What's in a Haiku book can pick up reading in the middle of this LUF thread:
https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/281486-photobook-publishing-and-its-discontents/page/3/#comment-3616868
And here are a few GRD pictures: https://www.instagram.com/mitchalland/
The picture below is what Moriyama Daido calls a "no finder shot". That will be somewhat easier to do in a very fluid way with the GRIII.

I'd be more incline to see you shoot with the GRIII and then to hear your thoughts. More because I'm curious about this too so it's self serving. I use the Q in that fashion a lot but would be nice to get something even smaller that I can literally pull out of the pocket for a quick snap whenever. My only complaint with the GRIII is that they removed the flash which limits my snap shot ability to daytime mostly.
I've been shooting with the M10-D a lot, it's fun but everything I've been shooting lately I've been deleting. I haven't really had the time to go out and shoot for myself. It's more incidental shooting because I have the camera with me (but don't like the mundane in the end) or it's been work shooting.

Adam - First, on the M10-D, I assume it has the same sensor and processing engine as the M10: for me, the M10 blows highlights much more easily than the M9 and the MM; much too easily, particularly on higher-contrast lenses like the new Summaron-M 1:56/28. Generally, I have to underexpose 0.7–2.0 stops, or even more, and raise the shadows significantly in post. Børge has referred to this and "adan", on LUF, has referred to this as the "weird sensitometry of the M10". Have you found this to be an issue with the M10-D?
On the removal of the flash in the GRIII, I found this regrettable as well; but, ultimately, figured that, if the low light capability camera is fine to ISO 6400, as is likely, it should not pose a problem for me. But low light is really dull parkas nothing but flash can enliven an image — is this why you're thinking the lack of flash on the GRIII would limit it to daylight shooting for you?
I arrived in Paris last night, and learned that there is a general strike expected on Tuesday. I was expecting to go fo a camera store that is likely have received one that would be held for me. If Paris public transport is on strike — they don't announce in advance — Paris traffic will be bad, as people bring their own cars into the city, and taxis will be hard to find. I don't mind having to wait a few days, and shall post some images and comments on the GR III on the Ricoh thread here.
