You Can get into an H3D system with a couple of lenses for under $25K(New). As
for leica S2, I think if it's priced right it'll take a share of the 'blad
business and with the rumors about Nikon going to a larger sensor similar to
the Leica S2 that market will really heat up. The leica S2 is being
co-developed with Phase One and rumoe has it that it's going to hace the same
mount as the Phase One MF body (Mamiya).

I always thought the stuff was made for Doctors, Lawyers, and Indian
Chiefs.. and a few Pros is select markets...
Who but a Pro, a successful Pro, can afford a $40K camera body plus the cost
of a few lenses? And there is no used market to save money ,,, you must buy it
new.
Personally, I do not see where Leica (S2) thinks they are going to get some
market share...
