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.
