This accompanies a similar thread on that "other" rollei list alluding to a 
rangefinder camera that would have succeeded IF ONLY it had been marketed 
well... The meaning/ role of marketing at different companies is just 
completely different, and pointing a finger at" marketing" as the ubiquitous 
failure is typically ill-informed, simplictic, and usually just out-and-out 
wrong.

Reality is that for a firm the size of Kodak. there is no money in "high end 
niches" of any sort whatsoever.  There never has been.
