I just can't help think that the majority of pro-P645 shooters have either
sold
off their 645 kit or have the lenses lying on a shelf some place and have
moved
on to a current system. So really it wouldn't be all that appealing to
them.
The remainder of the lenses would be in the hands of amateurs who really
most
probably aren't going to be able to afford the damn DSLR body anyhow.
That may be. I can only speak for myself, and if I had a half dozen
expensive lenses sitting around, I'd be looking for some way to make that
investment work for me.
