I haven't looked at that one, but Kodak just announced prosumer digicams 
(P Series) to ship this Fall that have RAW capture and continue with 
Schnieder lenses and Schneider accessories such as B+W filters, tcons 
and wcons.  Two models (one w/ 24-140 equiv. zoom, one with a longer 
optical range), ot shoe and synch connections, etc.  If they live up to 
the marketing hype, then they will move into the advanced amateur niche 
at what appears to be good pricing.
