This is a new improved version of the 14...we'll have to wait and see how
things shake out.

I was planning to get a 1DII in the next few months but I may hold off a
bit...

I wonder if this is Kodak shooting itself in the foot again? Hasn't the EOS
1-Ds consistently outperformed the Kodak dsc-14 in image quality and most
other categories? A Sigma body with a Canon mount, will consumers drop $5G
for it? I won't be surprised, however, if Canon drops the 1-Ds price a grand
or so putting it closer to the Kodak in price.

Nice, but it has the wrong mount. Again. Can't Kodak do it right, at least
once?

They're already making a Drangefinder :-) together with Epson & using the
same sensor as the *ist D.

Then, they already make a M42-mount slr.

Maybe a M42-mount and a fully compatible K-mount DSLR by Cosina/Epson team
is not so further away...

Sure they will. That's why they decided to make one in M42 mount!! How about 
that?

Yeah, I find it interesting that they use a Sigma body, but don't do it
in a Sigma mount.  What about us Pentax users Kodak?  We want full frame
too.  Those greedy Canon people not have two options!
