Sorry to (maybe) burst your bubble Rob.. But I've heard rumour from the List moderator on the HUG that there's plans to have an "inexpensive" digital back for the Blad.
It could be for the Blad.. I don't know for sure.. but I'm just saying "it could be" :) Cheers, Dave Original Message: ----------------- From: Rob Brigham [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2002 15:28:16 +0100 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: more Photkina information According to Colorfoto-Website (German Photo-magazin) Kodak will show a 16 MP SLR at photokina. http://www.netedition.de/sixcms/detail.php3?id=29445 "Speculation abounds: Kodak already has a 16-Megapixel digital back for professional cameras in their lineup. This chip would only have to be modified slightly, in order to fit into a small SLR camera. Officially Kodak still wraps itself in silence." Could this be it: http://www.kodak.com/US/plugins/acrobat/en/digital/ccd/kai11000.pdf >From DPReview: "35mm format, 10.8MP. It is "designed for professional digital still camera applications", according to the sheet. Could this be the sensor in the next Kodak DCS camera? It would offer full-frame coverage and, because it's an interline-transfer sensor, fast shutter speeds. Apparently not an impressive frame rate, though; they talk of 1-3 fps." Don't know whose body Kodak is going to install it in? Plllleeeeaaaassssseee Mr Pentax??!?!?!? -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ .
