You can tell your friend I'm available for adoption. In Canada those things run around 45K just for the back. Yikes.

Medium Format digital backs are supposed to drop in price this year and I got that info from a Mamiya rep this past November but the price per a megapixel to me is just not worth it yet he could buy a 1Ds for that price. Anyway good luck and tell your friend to at least wait until spring to see whats going to happen with prices it could save him $$$$$$.

What about the digital backs made by Phase One - http://www.phaseone.com

They recently introduced two new ones, but they still cost something with 5 figures.

Digital Photo Pro just did an article on MF digital backs. It might even still be on the newstands.
