I would love to have a digital back for my 'blad, but only one that is 6x6, 
not the little ones. I'm not sure any digital backs will work on my 500CM, 
but they should on my 500ELX. Ah, if I only hit the powerball.

As Leica prices increase and increase (in order to make their Factory stores 
profitable or appealing to a retailer?), adding a digital back to my 
existing old Hasselblad V system becomes more tempting. Leica M prices and 
Hasselblad digital back prices are beginning to converge.

Maybe instead of the M10, I'll consider the digital back the Hasselblad.

Then again, it may be time to cash in and sell my used Leica gear and pick 
up the Hasselblad back and still have money left over to buy a Fuji xpro-1 
with M adapter and use any remaining Leica lenses on that.


Cheers--Doug
