"PENTAX Imaging Systems Division is pleased to announce the launch of the PENTAX 645D lens-interchangeable, medium-format digital SLR camera.

Not my kind of camera, but Pentax has done something interesting here by releasing a medium-format camera at under $10,000. dpreview.com has all the specs and details.
