It already is, for those who are professional photographers and have any
kind of revenue. From this point of view, going directly to digital
medium format might be the best choice, and a Hasselblad H1D or the new
digital Mamiya (it may not be in stores yet) might be worthy of serious
consideration.

A Mamiya 67 on the other hand might not be a good choice from the
viewpoint of going to digital in the near future.
