If anyone wants to place a small wager, I'll bet that within six to 18
months Nikon will, in fact, introduce a digital back for the F6. In
fact, I'm convinced that's why they're introducing the F6 in the first
place.

Funny!!

It just occuts to me thoujght that for marketing purposes if I were the
guy I'd tell them to have to F6 come out but also a "digial version"
called the "F6D".
