I would buy one as quickly as possible. And am in fact
making arrangements to insure that I have the money
come this spring.

I expect it to be comparable to the d60/d100. But as
long as it's got specs equal to the MZ-S I'll be
happy.

A growing company will always have something more
superior sooner or later. But there is only one reason
that I want digital; that is because I work for a
daily paper and a digital would greatly reduce my
number of headaches. ;) For the paper, 3mp is more
than enough. The ability to use my lenses and flashes
etc etc etc, on a digital body outweighs any of the
negatives that I've been able to think up this far.

If it has the specs of the MZ-S then it will most
definitly be useful to pros.
