All I need now is another camera! I hope my Gitzo 1325 can hold the camera. In digital terms would this be a 10,000+ mega pixel?

But realistically,
.. we will see the photograph presented at monitor resolution ...

Now, if they compose the old control tower and deserted landing strips in an interesting way, then I'll be impressed.

Pete, they are working on a huge turn table to get under the building so it can be turned to obtain a pleasing comp can be captured. :rolleyes: LOL

Nice camera! I was waiting for the next Canon 1 series to upgrade from my 350D, but this one look much better...if it is hand-holdable, I'll buy two.

Someone should contact the EPA to make sure that development tank gets added to the list of Superfund sites.

All fine and good, but can you rotate it for a vertical composition? No tilt, swing or shift. And it can't even use Velvia, not that I would want to try to calculate the exposure compensation on it.

On the bright side, at least there is some room for cropping...
