Not quite as easy as it might appear, the major issue lies with the actual plane of focus on a sensor assembly vs the materials that must be placed in front of the light sensitive surface. IOW the sensor assembly would need to slightly protrude into the mirror box, not a great situation when combined with a focal plane shutter ;-) -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
