New ZF Distagon 35mm f/1.4 coming?

Thanks to Tony pointing us to the right place to look.

Apparently, someone over at FM spotted a new ZF Distagon 35mm f/1.4 for SLR with floating element is in hands of a famous Leica reviewer Erwin Putts


Take a look - http://www.imx.nl/photo/leica/camera/page155/m9part2.html

In Erwin Putts' M9 review part 2 - 7th paragraph, he lists lenses used to compare the M9 and D3x:

Lenses used are the Summilux-M 1.4/35mm asph and a very new redesigend Zeiss Distagon 1.4/35 with floating element.

Doesn't sound like a typo to me.
Will there be a new faster ZM with floating element too?

Sony's Full Frame CCD SuperHAD II

Thanks to asdrubal for bringing our attentions to Sony's improved CCD sensor here.
The one of the major improvements on this CCD design is to shorten the distance between microlens and the sensor itself.
Does it help dRF you ask. Well, it should! The high incident angle problem can be thought of as light rays travel too "horizontal" to the ground, and as a result hitting the "well" rather than the ground of "well" as per The Luminous Landscape's terminology. So shortening the well indeed helps.
Hmm.... will this sensor bring out a dRF from Zeiss or Sony?
