Fuji, sortof. The DX format S5 Pro is semi-discontinued (IIRC still available in Japan), as is the GX645, their version of the Hasselblad H1. They still do some film MF (GF670) and 35mm (Klasse compacts) cameras though. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
