I can see some out of the box uses, but mostly on the scientific side of the equation, this is, forensic( medical in general) , Crime scene ultra detailed shots, and of course, military uses. If the resolution of the optics reaches that of the chip, then also some telescopic( astronomy) photography and aerial reconoissance imaging can also be part of this. On the artisitic side, I may think of those artists who love to shoot the huge Polaroids just for the hell of it, finding this toy an interesting one. Regarding agencies, I would expect some good laughs here and there anytime some pretentious ignorant pops out with the info, just to test your own grounds... In the meantime Leica is bringng the Digilux 2 into existence , with a fantastic 5 MP camera, all the analog controls we can remember in a classic Leica, and enough pixels for journalistic/documentary work. Quite a piece!! Jorge Parra =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
