What many may be missing about the camera is that it really isn't a "play" into the rangefinder market so much as a "collector's" camera. They are only going to make 2000 of them and I hear the price will be about $3500-$3800 for the body and 50mm lens. Also, only three lenses are going into production and the camera is a virtual "clone" of the original S3. I would doubt that Nikon starts to re-introduce a whole lot of rangefinder gear unless the public is really crawling the walls for it... Just my opinion. ;-> Rich
