Fuji does it by not grafting parts....they use a real N80/F80...if you take one
apart you will even see the film holder LOL (after 35 screws though). Fuji
also has the best sensor going bar none (and noise).
Kodak's camera was just aweful for what you paid.

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.
