And how is this different than buying a D100 or S1/S2/S3 or 14n
for thousands of dollars when they are just "rebadged" $200 N80
bodies?
Or people spending $1000 on a DRebel that's in a $50 body? (I'm
being generous). "It's the electronics/sensor that's expensive"
you say? Hogwash. Except for the size of the sensor, I can buy
a more feature rich digicam with a better lens for half the
price. Sensor size only accounts for a hundred bucks for the
chip at best.
