Regarding the prototype digital SLR
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0102/01021106pentaxdigitalslr.asp
Why does it have to be so big? We know it cant be a power drive so is that
an enormous battery pack on the bottom?
I think digital will be great when the cameras offer the same creative
options as film cameras - but to me handling is oh so important and I
absolutely hated my SFXn because of its bulk and ponderous focussing. The
MZ/ZXs redressed that when they handled as nicely as the ME Super.
Otherwise it looks very much like the MZS.
PS - has anyone published any figures in terms of effective "megapixel"
resolution of various films.
PPS - I read a couple of years ago about someone working on a "digital film"
for fitting in any 35mm camera - does anyone know what happened to that?
Perhaps the power requirements killed it off. Alternatively what about a
digital back?
