Or simply a 12 MP FF 35 mm sensor in a back that will fit on a 645 nII. That could be below $6K and would given the MF types a digital option. There are few enough FF 35 mm- style cameras around to make this a viable option, especially since the Canon 1DS is competing with MF.

If Pentax could deliver a FF 645 digital camera for 6k or under at this moment they'd have the market sown up as there isn't even any add on backs approaching this price in the market at this moment. Next there will be stories of a 12Mp FF 35mm body for under 1k :-( Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
