It's for show and botiques only, IMO.
You're discussing the reproduction of the SP, which was the pinnacle of the
Nikon RF line prior to the F. In fact, the F is really the guts of an SP
with SLR goodies.

It's $7,000? The vast majority will never see one roll of film. It's
really strickly a collector's item. Just like the SP3 Millenium that was
produced, it won't be offered here officialy, but I'm sure you could find
one with enough cash to wing its way over the Pacific Ocean.

I was shocked to see on the Japanese Nikon site that they have
resurrected their rangefinder camera looking very nice in all black.
Have not seen any news about it. It may be for local consumption only.
Something going on here?
