It doesn't even have a parallax corrected viewfinder. You can also find a real S3 for less money. The S3 simply doesn't have the same mystique. I believe the SP may be a different story. It's the Nikon RF everyone wants. Imagine if Leica had stopped making M cameras 30 years ago and suddenly decided to reissue the M4. A beat up chrome SP starts at $2500, but the price of an original black paint model (forget about mint) makes the re-issue almost look like a bargain. feli -----Original Message----- From: Jeffery Smith <jefferys@gmail.com> A bit surprising after hearing that they lost so much money on the S3 and that the S3 was moving so slowly in sales.
