Well, all the various "9" bodies was rather half hearted effords. Although the latest 
achieved some short lived sucess I would expect its close to unsellable now after the 
new Dynaxx 7 was released.
Their Pentax LX/Nikon F2/Canon F1 competitor, the Minlota XM, was an utter and totalt 
failure. One of the rarest slr's around.
