Converting film cameras to digital: EFS-1 The technology that almost was (updated) - Olivier "F8" Duong | Documentary & Street Photography

I was so excited when this product was in the limelight. I still get bummed out just thinking about it. Its an interesting read. I'd be happy to deal with some of the short comings just as long as it has a full frame. These days, digital is so affordable I am not convinced there really is a market... but I sure would be interested.

It is a interesting concept. But at this point, it is not economical for company to invest money to a dead end. This is a product that rely on other products, a 35mm film camera body to survive but not much film based camera bodies are being produce nowadays.
