Cool, does that mean I'll be able to get an F6 cheap. Or does it mean they'll get more expensive due to rarity )

So OK (Ian) digicammad I trust the BBC more than that other dodgy website that (Ian) characterboats directed you too - LOL!

I wonder how long it will take though (if it ever happens) before digital cameras stay around as long as the film models before being superseded.

That will only happen when digital has reached some sort of plateau of development.

No light at the end of that tunnel yet but lenses are (I assume) going to be the showstopper unless there is a major breakthrough.

I think the next development will be more pixels to overcome the lens performance issues. Say having a 30mp sensor to produce a 12mp image, but with the ability to map out CA etc.
