This is why I am so excited about the Pentax 645. The DM22 is a leaf aptus back (probably old surplus stock) and half the megapixels that has been rebranded.

Having pentax enter the market would definitly lower prices though and increase competition. check out the mamiya website, the DM22 back is supposed to retail for right under 10 grand

That back I don't think is produced anymore and for good reason. You won't get any Phase One back particularly around 40Mps for anything near that, even refurbished.That being said as an amateur I am salivating at the prospect of this camera and agree totally with you that it potentially will mark a turning point in the camera industry particularly for amateurs wanting to be released from the AA filter blurring and seeking the meduim format IQ. I just hope a few digital 645 lenses are released at teh same time as the camera. The Mamiya back I think you are referring to is the ZD2.

Currently mamiya is the only company that produces sub 10k digital backs, and its barely under the 10. Pentax could destroy huge market shares of mamiya, nikon and canon with one camera release.
