Lucky, manage to get rid of mine after talking to Epson's staff... news of a new rd-1 is true..

With G1, will there still a demand for this cam???

does that means now with G1 and the new RD.. prices of lens will go up due to demand???

ebay too ???

I'm always up for it.

I cannot resist a digital camera with a film advance lever. It's simply a dream come true for me
Impractical, yes. But i'm not a fast frame shooter, and winding the lever just gives me 50% the pleasure of shooting on any body. It's the experience

Yeah, i bet is a funky feeling. Click, Crank, Click, Crank...
I've never hands on a RF before. Heh.. looks like a affordable version of M8. But it's available in Japan only. Tempted but worried about warranty and support, especially the focus alignment issues.

There are not many 6MP sensors around now.

Unless S3Pro sensor!
