Not so many years ago I saw in the press a preview of a digital insert which
was the size of a 35mm cassette with protruding sensor like a tongue of 35mm
film.
I know it never made it to market (I have a feeling that power supply was
the problem) - but I don't know what happened to the idea. Anyone know?

My alternative would be to offer digital functionality for image capture,
but interfacing seamlessly with the manual focusing, manual exposure
adjustment, and general handling of the older SLR cameras, for instance an
OM-1n. There's no reason technically why a digital-back unit couldn't be
built that would offer digital image capture, while preserving all the
normal handling actions of the OM-1n...
