I will try to grab him next time I see him. We don't meet very often, but hopefully once between now and Christmas. Any battery dependent camera will have trouble after a while in -30 C. But then again so will the human body...:-) So far, I have been less enduring than any of my cameras at -20 C, including the *istD. There's more than price to it to create a hit in the marketplace, but if the quality standard of the 645Nii is continued with the D, I'm happy. My hopes for street price is around USD 7500, but that's only a daydream...:-) Jostein ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
