a couple of years ago there was an outfit in souther california that made the first aftermarket digatl camera back...

it was for the F3HP, was 2.x something pixels and cost around $795.00..US

I called them and they had another version, also for the F3HP coming out in about six months from then, which was in the high 3.x (close to 4.0) pixel range and the estimated cost was to be in the mid $900.00 range...

I was on there e-mail annoucement list at that time..but cannot recall their name...I believe I may have the information in an old comp..with another e-mail address that i no longer use...that is prob why I have not heard from them

I will try to look that up...and also ask some of my more dedicated photo friends and see what i can come up with..as I am also interested in this higher pixel range back...

you can of course, use all of your nikon lenses with this back..having all the versitality of your normal camera but with the modern technology of digital

the back just dropped into where the canister normally goes..and i believe you even used your origanal cover door but not sure of that

hope i helped some..and did not create more of a mystery by not being able to recall the company name
