Or is 35mm now the realm of other manfacturers?
Is it the realm of *any* manufacturers now? Film sales are so
sluggish
even compared to two years ago that I would be stunned if there
was any
kind of market at all for new 35mm SLRs.
I refer also to 35mm digital, not just film
There's no such thing as "35mm digital".
There is such a thing as a digital sensor with dimensions of 24x36mm.
Canon makes two of them now, with a minimum price at present around
$3200, plus or minus, for the body. It is safest to assume that it
will be a while at least before such large sensors are approachable
in cameras targeted at the under $1000 price class, but it may never
be necessary to do so given the continuing improvements in sensor
quality for noise and pixel density.
