Well, the magnesium alloy, fully electronic, pro-af, super-metering... (etc :P ) d700 goes for less than $2500, so I don\'t see any rational reason, other than \"we have our audience, we want the dentists, nooen else\"-doctrine, to price it any higher than that, to be honest, without AF-electronics and a lot of other stuff, it should be possible to make a fully manual, fully weathersealed digital fullframe rangefinder for $1500-2500 somewhere.
Hmmm... I have never seen the Nikon factory, but I have seen the Leica one, and I doubt that there is any similarity in the way the cameras are produced. And even if Nikon were to produce a DRF. If I have my facts straight, their previous effort at rangefinder building was even more expensive than the Leica of the time.
