We’ll find out tomorrow – or the day after.

EDIT: If this should really turn out as an April fool’s joke, he’s put quite some effort into it …
EDIT #2: Photo Rumors even seem to be a bit pissed

UPDATE: Jeff has admitted it was an April Fool’s joke – well, that was quite clear already yesterday. But what’s interesting is his motivation for this: He created a lot of traffic since there is a lot of interest in a modern, versatile and affordable digital rangefinder camera. And that’s what he wanted to show the big players in the camera business – rangefinder cameras aren’t just an unimportant niche for freaks and nerds, there are actually a lot of people who would buy one.
