A photographer's haven for the lastest in digital or traditional film cameras.

It is a shame the camera makers did not choose...

72.75.70.125

to make digital backs for 35mm film slrs as a retrofit.

Yeah, I totaly agree and this idea has come up several times as I have spoke to avid photographers over the past week about the subject. Everyone seems to have there favorite film body. How cool would it be to have a digital back on an old Leica or Rolleiflex?

The lower end Nikon (F50) ctually has the same CCD as the Pentax, so that the only differences from that end are the image processing. Apparently, this iis a non issue if you shoot raw format, but leads to a noticable difference in jpeg. I know that Pentax has two new cameras out on the market and wondered how these stacked up as well.
