Couldn't you have done the subscription wedding thing at any stage over the last 5 years using streaming video technology Collin?

I met the NIkon rep yesterday.  Had a good talk.

The Nikon D1 and D2 series bodies now accept a Nikon adapter which is 802.11b
and allow specific logging into another computer. They're now real network
devices. There's a choice of antennas for transmitting 50 or 500 ft.


Also, they use a fast CF card as a virtual memory overflow buffer so you can
shoot almost continuous in JPG mode and a good while in RAW mode before
any slow-downs.


For you wedding photographers -- just set up your laptop out in the car
and you go shoot and transmit, not worrying about space.  Or ... stick a
PDA with an 4 gig card in your coat pocket and send it everything.

One could set up an engine to take wedding photos and post them
immediately to the web.  Make that a subscription item to sell so people
who can't make it can see it as it happens!

Unfortunately Pentax is now a 3rd-tier player.
