W-J,

A dealer I know was really enthusiastic about the Contax N Digital and
thought it would take the market by storm.

The sample prints that I saw were excellent.

I remember him making convincing argument and trying to justify the cost of
a complete change of lenses. But that's how he ran his Rolls Royce!

I think I came to the conclusion that, given the cost, I would have been
better of with a digital back for my MF.

A comparison with the Kodak Pro might be interesting and I suspect show how
Contax were ahead of the game.
