Oh, and once you solve the issue of where and how to attach the sensor, you need to figure out where to put everything else, like LCD, buttons for the sensor settings, etc. So your drop-in cartridge is not really drop-in, you do have to replace the rear door completely which then means you are in a whole world of adapters to fit different cameras. And you are also in a whole world of pain regarding sensor alignment and tolerance. Is it you that focused wrong, the lens that front focused, the sensor that was not aligned or your nose that pushed the not-so-rigid-rear-sensor-module too much?
These can all be solved if you throw money at them but we are well beyond an economical solution compared to designing one from scratch. At least with today\'s technology.
