Bill Pearce -----Original Message----- From: Richard Man Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2011 2:57 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Another shot across the S2 Bow... H4D-31 It's a small market. I hang out on two forum that use MFD but both are more from the landscape / architecture crowd perspective rather than fashion shooters. With those people, for a dSLR single piece gear, S2 is not a major option as Hassy / Phase One- Mamiya are more well known and more flexible (the other segment uses tech camera like the Alpa that Bob is buying). Pentax is apparently selling all the 645D they can make, as is Leica with their S2 so I suspect this Hassy will sell very well indeed. The market is small with people changing gear all the time (unless you are on a budget, but if you are, you probably are not in the game to begin with). I'm not sure if the market is saturated yet so it could be growth for everybody. -- // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com/> // icc blog: <http://imagecraft.com/blog/> // photo blog: <http://www.5pmlight.com> [ For technical support on ImageCraft products, please include all previous replies in your msgs. ] _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
