[OM] digital back

Just a random thought - what would the market be, and what is the
feasibility of, a "digital back" which converted a classic SLR to a
digital camera?

Clearly, the form factor is all wrong for systems based on floppy disks,
and some of the glitzy controls on current digital cameras would disapper
- but it would make for an interesting beast, no?

Can't be any harder than designing and producing a "Polaroid back".

How much would *you* pay for one?
