Gonna have to do that anyway if he/she is forced to switch brands to get FF. Six of one, half a dozen of the other. >Personally, I find the idea of fantasizing about a 39mp medium format camera >far more enticing than fantasizing about another 6 megapixels in a slightly >larger sensor. Unfortunately, the extra 8 grand to afford the 645D is *just* a fantasy for me and most others. (And the "additional cost of new lenses" factor with the 645D is even bigger than with FF 35mm.) I can afford $2000 for 25-or-so megapixels in a 35mm-class body. Only the additional cost of the 24-70/2.8 Zeiss is stopping me now :) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
