They say that the image resolution is 3072x2048 (with 12 bits) and with
size of "35mm full frame". This is the limit I wrote just a couple of
weeks ago that would be the deciding limit for me. Then it's just waiting
for the price to come down. Actually I also expect it to have the same
features as EOS 3.... but that's already old technology - not much to ask
;-) This is very good news, as now the others (Canon, Nikon) will have to
follow. Now we just start waiting for the Canon full frame 6 Megapixel EOS
D3.... and the drop of it's price ;-)
