The prospect for the Kodak camera is not going to be a combat photojournalist or sports photographer. They will be looking to blow their pictures up as large as possible and to do that, they'll be willing to work a little slower.

Apparently, you are more interested in capturing the action, than in image quality. That's not a bad thing, just a choice.

I could be wrong as usual, but I suspect that the 14mp Kodak Pro/c will have a negligible market impact compared with either one of the more expensive Canon 1Ds and the lower-resolution 1D Mk II.

I'm trying to figure out who the target buyer is for the Kodak, and having a
difficult time.

Personally I didn't even consider spending my $4500 on 14 dog-slow flimsy
megapixels from Kodak/Sigma rather than 8 rapid-fire armored-tank megapixels
from Canon.

Therefore I'm guessing the Pro/c won't exert very much downward price
pressure on anything but itself. Too bad.
