There are more rumours over at dprev forums than members. A digital
rangefinderfrom Nikon would be very appreciated, but with
electronic-M-mount? I doubt Nikon would ever make any M-mount camera. What
I am concerned, take autofocus, in-finder LCD and zoom away, put the D3
fullframe sensor in the Nikon 2005 SP and I would be pleased enough. And
even pay more than the mentioned $3k price level.
