I wonder how big of a market there is for the "Best of" cameras.  The 
EOS1DsIII while a great camera has a great price tag also.  As does the 
new D3x or whatever Nikon calls theirs.  If Canon and Nikon did not make 
D40's and Digital Rebels I do not think they'd be the profitable 
companies they are.  Leica really needs to consider making some entry 
level cameras also.  The number of people who will pay 1200- 2000 for a 
new body are far greater than those who will pay 5grand for one.
