"In the beginning of June we shipped the medium-format digital SLR (645D) for professional and advanced amateur use. Priced at about 900,000 yen apiece, we released several hundred in one go, and it sold so well we finally managed to get back orders. As a result, the camera business broke even in the first quarter."
