Dear Group,
Anyone ever tried to have one of the earlier Canon/Kodak digicam's
(DCS-1/3/5, based on the EOS-1n) upgraded with one of the Special
Custom Functions? (for the 1n in general, by Canon Service, one out
of 19 possible; see http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/cf_eos1n.htm
for the complete list)
Having a DCS-3, I would like to add #12 (delaying film transport
until after you lift the finger from the release button (like the old
RT had standard (but the 1n-RS does not(!)).
The only thing between the Kodak back/booster & the 1n is a 3-strand
wire....
(which also makes me believe that one can easily retrograde such a
DCS-1/3/5 back into an ordinary 1n....had the 1n-RS not come with
it's own fix-mounted booster, I might even have tried to combine an
1n-RS with this Kodak back....:))
(mark my words: once the digital hype is over, and we finally have
full-size chips for a decent price, the only improvements left will
be speed (ASA) and luxury features/models like a pellicle
mirror....too bad there is nothing to invent after that, because it
means that my ideal model won't see a price drop as all the previous
did....;))

Bye,
