Digital backs would NOT need to be camera specific. Why? How? Because they could be produced as a MODULAR system.
Can you explain why this degree of modularity is not in production yet? It would seem that if it were practical we\'d have seen this already instead of the current standard practice of replacing entire cameras when a new sensor is developed.
Because its bad business to sell consumers an $800 sensor back, when you can sell them a $3000 camera body?
It\'s bad business to require a consumer to buy an entire car if all he needs is a new tire. There\'s a reason sensors aren\'t interchangeable and it\'s not corporate greed.
