I would guess that because of the larger format size, a much smaller population of photogs use RZ with digital back, although there are backs that can fit. The digital sensors are sized for 645 format or even smaller, so the extra coverage is wasted. With smaller lenses you get things like 1/800 shutter speed instead of 1/400, smaller size/weight, etc. The digital backs are so much more expensive than the cameras, most people plan the camera system purchase around the digital back purchase. Most pros that plan on doing a lot of medium format digital use a 645 size system or at least 60 square such as Hasselblad. Those that use RZ with a digital would probably be someone that uses it for film mostly and only occasionally for digital. Of course there will be exceptions to this.
