"The answer to any question that begins 'Why don't they . . . ' is almost always, 'Money.'"


-Robert Heinlein

It's a neat idea, but with Zeiss now offering their classic lenses in Nikon mount, M42, and whatever else, there seems very little point to a "digifilm" product anymore. And yes, mein Kamerad, my main 35mm kit is an SL35E. Still, you must admit that the main attraction of the SL35 line (excepting the 2000-3000 series) has always been the Zeiss lenses, which now sell for an amount almost certainly far lower than a hypothetical digifilm device, even including the cost of a new digital body.

Best regards,
Aaron

Strange, that this good idea did not get to market.

I would have bought one for my Rollei SL 35 E.
