Rushing over the idea it seems as if it wouldn´t be too hard to supply something like that, the more as all the controls wouldn´t be needed digitally. And as most analog roll film backs should have been plain in the exposing sector, it appears like doable to me to have a sensor bearing base (with elevating screws to adjust to the original celluloid plane) with a unit attached for A/C conversion, battery and card holder, which one would be sticking in there too. However, camera sales appear to be facing a drop, with quality and technical capacity possibly leading to saturation effects similar of the PC market. From there, hypothetic makers of such a camera converting kit, like Sony should be less declined to cannibalize on their photo segment, unless it was for special margins. That and a rather small potential number of clients for a retro adaptor / small production numbers to feed the mill with, would leave the product outside from realistic pricing. Having said that, there´s just been a release from a smaller company who made an amazing housing which turns your iPhone into a considerable camera. If entepreneurs like that could make sensor manufacturers to come out with chips and environment ... - Technically, I prefer to have all those controls and options of conventional DSLRs, but can definitly understand the wish for haptics and design of good old housing, - and the nostaligia anyway. Once almost bought a small digital camera that was beautifully housed in the good old way, with chrome parts & all. Would have been great for the pocket. - Wonder how Richard managed to see Simon´s pic. At that time it was already "This picture is not available anymore" for me. Ruphus

I think to have used it before on the foro, in respect of finish / shape in guitar making. Dysfunctional syntax? You should see me yet syntaxing and terming along when it´s in a language I don´t even like. Like in that ancient one, whichs terminology of objects -either yet unknown hundreds of years ago or lost from own vocabulary- vastly consists of words lent from European source. Almost always distorted ("emperatur" for emperor, "oreanus" for ocean, "jean" for jeans, and as the very latest vegetable import from 6 years or so ago "buru-ukli" for broccoli, etc.) or even misassigned ("jazz" for drums, "serum" for infusion, "flash" for USB sticks, etc.) Foreign terms put into right order, in conjunction with a messed up syntax and a bunch of wrong prepositions often times yield funny effects with people not yet used to yours truly talking. You can literally see cubes dropping from shelves in the heads, to then one by one be puzzled back up into place. Especially, as foreigners very rarely occure, so that folks being quite inflexible in semantic respect. Yet, the archaic "judge" insisting on me having written a certain disadvantageous discription, while me actually being illiterate with Arabic scripture: "You can´t fool me. I know that you have written this, and your language skills are better than mine". Accordingly, much of perception appears to be a matter of intention. If know you what I means. Ruphus
