I posted an example on my website (link below). It's of the homecoming of
the USS Harry S Truman in Norfolk after their last Persian Gulf deployment.
If it displays the way it does on my computer, the image should show up with
a little magnifying glass with a + sign in it. If you click on the image
with the + sign, it should expand out to full size. If you download it into
a photo viewing program, it's amazing how much you can zoom it before it
starts to get pixulated. Pixilated? Blurry? It's already degraded
somewhat simply by the conversion to a .jpg.

I can't believe the clarity the D2X does, remembering that it's a digital
camera. I wonder how much better the D3X is. Here's the link:

Aperture was f9, yet was was sharp up close and on the bridge. Very
nice. If you notice, he had the White balance set on cloudy, even
though it was a sunny day. It made the photo more saturated than it
really and made the colors pop and vibrant.

About $8000 for the body only. (Yikes)

24,5 Megapixel in FX-Format
3D Color Matrix II, Center-Weighted and Spot Metering
1 - 7 fps
1/8000 to 30 seconds shutter
ISO equivalency 100 to 1,600
2 lb 11 oz / 1220 g
Price est. $7,995 USD body

Another FX-format camera means that Nikon will jump back with both feet
into the production of full-frame lenses, updating some of the current
ones and introducing new ones.

SW Tom should buy of the new D3X boxes...


I have a friend who would be the one to buy this camera. But he makes
his living as a professional photographer, and lots of his are Corporate
annual reports where they need high quality photos. Most of his pics are
stored on the computer hooked up to the camera and are 200 mbytes or
greater. The rest of us use the $1000 or less Nikon SLR.
Really? Most of the pros I know use larger format cameras for large-page
annual reports and other publications where the highest quality is
required. Hasselblads rule. Nothing wrong with 35mm frame size, of
course, but bigger images are better, quality-wise.


Guy has not shot film in years. All digital.

I just ordered this for my back up camera

Ain't gonna matter. 4/3rds is going to rule the world.

Besides, this is just a rehash of the 35mm film tech - big whoop.

For what - I have trouble finding things to shoot with my Hasselblad
which cost less and is a hell of a lot better camera.

39.1 Megapixel in 220 can produce gigabyte images.

Too large for the average photographer.

When you charge $3000 a day plus %500 a day for an assistant, plus
expenses, which is what the Left Coast photographer I use charges, you
can afford whatever you want. The woman I hire out there for commercial
photography uses Hasselblad film cameras, as does the architectural
photographer I hire. In fact, for cover shots, he uses a 4x5 film
camera. They shoot transparency film. For Q&D shots, though, they do use
digital Nikons or Canons.

Same theory actually - the better things are fewer in number.

It's an age old axiom that consumer sheeple like you get suckered with

It's hard to rule the world with a 1% market penetration, which is about
what 4/3rds has now, and eTec has yet to achieve. :)
