Especially if the lenses did not cost a kings ransom. I think (IMO) that was one of the reasons for its demise. They had AF, nice camera. but the cost of the lenses?! Wow! Made Mamiya look cheap.



Well, Zeiss is now left with these magnificent lenses designed for 645 and no camera system. I know they want to stay in medium format, and it has been speculated that they will take the Contax 645 II, which was ready for production, to another company and have it built. That could be very interesting if it happened. Look for some interesting stuff at photokina next year.
