True. And if it's not just being shown under glass this time it's a very good sign. I think the major reason for the delay has been the pixel count escalation necessitated by high end 35mm-class cameras. With Canon reportedly going to 22MP with the 1Ds-III, anything under 20MP is going to be regarded as "35mm class" despite the huge noise advantages medium format is going to have. Silly, but that's human nature (and marketing) for you. >If Pentax can introduce a moderately priced ($5000 or >less) 32 megapixel 645, they will have a real winner on their hands. I don't know if they'll hit that price but if they can get anywhere near that of the high-megapixel Canons they'll have a winner. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
