the total system price (camera and a couple of lenses), were near the bottom in most comparisons
and quality, near the top. It will be hard to maintain that first one with a digital body. To keep
that they will have to have a perceived quality and similar feature set to the upcoming Canon 16mp
DSLR and a price closer to the current Kodak 14[x].

why not? i would imagine, people who bought p645 were budget-conscious (or they would have bought contax instead), and for those, digital MF right now exists only in theory (pricewise). hopefully, D645 would cost less than a new car. then i would buy one.
best, mishka

I can understand why mankind hasn't given up war. During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime.
