I'd love the 645D but the price differential is horrendous. Without looking at all the figures, 25 years back, wouldn't the step-up between a top 35mm SLR (Canon A1 maybe) and the old 645 (or even 6x7) have been far narrower than what we see today between a quality FF camera (like the Sony a900 or Canon 5D) and the 645D?

I can understand why, to a point..... 25 years ago the camera makers only had to worry about the mechanics of the camera, film wasn't their problem. Now the cameras include almost every element required - especially the sensor and processor.
