Yes, but Canon sells more 5D's alone than the MF digital market sells in a year (Last estimates I heard were under 10,000/year for the entire MF market). In fact I'd expect sales on the 1DsmkII to handily outweigh the MF digital market. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
