I just read somewhere that Sony ( or maybe it was minolta?) has a new digicam ( not slr) with 8Mpixel sensor!
Looks like 6Mpixel is not the leveling off point in consumer models after all.... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- J.C.

That does seem likely, Robert. I looked trough the B&H Digital Source Book last night. Let me hit the highligts for those who have not studied it. Fuji has a 6mp EVF camera out (first 6mp comsumer digital). Minolta and Panasonic each have a model with images stablization. Other than that all that I see is cosmetic and minor upgrades (4x zooms replacing 3x, etc.). This is definately a sign that digital is becoming a mature market. The Olympus C-5060Z (I have been wishing for a C-5050Z)has a slower (1.5 stop) 4x zoom and new cosmetics. Both make it less desirable to me than the 5050. Oh well, I can't afford it any more than I can afford an istD. -- Mark Roberts wrote: > To bring this back to within spitting distance of being on-topic: I > expect the way the LP/CD relationship compares to film/digital will be > in the way it affects the availability of equipment.
