I knew it was coming. Kodak's multi-year foray into the professional
digital camera market is now at an end. Their proprietary system was
doomed to failure unless someone in Rochester was willing to fund a pet
project.
Likely the margins weren't very good and they were getting creamed by
Canaon by having to graft parts onto another body. I guess that Fuji does
it by spreading its costs across the whole product line. Kodak doesn't
have any product line except P&S's, where it does quite nicely.
They won't be missed, IMO. Sad, but true.
