But I must say that there is something nearly magical in those high level cameras. Holding and operating such perfection gives a special feeling... or am I weird?Comment

Just like having anything that's made to such perfection... nothin strange about that
It's when you adore such things so much they take precidence over all others and or you charish them to the point of idolizing them... like buying only for the sake of having it, not that you would need or to actually use in real life."Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss

But I bet you that in less then 3 years the price will be under $1K...I would get one thenOriginally posted by K6-III
The vast majority won't spend $6000 on a camera...
Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?Comment

The new Canon is incredible. If I had the dough to drop on it I would in a heart beat, as is I'm saving for a D60.
The Kodak looks nice on paper, but they've been out of the Pro SLR market for a long time now. I would much sooner go with a Canon or a Nikon.
Heh, I wish that were the case, but it's not bloody likely. The retail price on the 1Ds predecessor has dropped a grand total of... 200 some odd dollars. Pro SLR's don't drop much in price till 5 or more years after they go out of production, at least thats what I've observed in the past.But I bet you that in less then 3 years the price will be under $1K...I would get one then
Anyway... here's to drooling over geek toys.

Well that particular model probably wont drop in price but many cameras for home users featuring chips of same sensitivity will be made and those will be cheaper. Well, the optics wont be nearly the same, but you cant have everythign for nothing
