$7K is reasonable to the pro medium format user who does a lot of shooting IF it can match medium format film in image quality. Don't forget that medium format film and processing is much more expensive per exposure than 35mm.

I fully expected that argument when I balked at the price, thanks for not disappointing me! <g>
You're totally right, of course.
I was speaking from an advanced-consumer basis, not that of a pro photographer.
Nevertheless, the story is very interesting, and might still be a harbinger of future offerings from Canon and other major companies...

I just read/heard in photo magazine that Canon is about to release a new FF DSLR with 16.6 Mp! Wow!
Looks like the 13 Mp models were not king of the hill for very long.
Street price will be around $7K

Heh, heh... at $7k, they can remain king of the hill as long as they please!
