How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    The value rating may be affected by the $4,995.00 price. :cry

    Value is a based on performance vs. cost....I think.

    Sounds like it's right in line to me.

    If only to bring up something pointless, have to say I love the artificial horizon shown on page 8.

    Now if it would only have pitch as well as roll information. How cool would it be, if it was theoretically possible to use that as a backup horizon in an aircraft lol3.gif
    Creativity's hard.

    The Nikon D3 is almost as good on paper as the incredible images people are producing with the camera. I am still amazed at the amount of detail and color at ISO 6400. That camera is a beast. clap.gif

    Geez, that's like when I don't wear a watch and I want to know what time it is, so I take a picture and look at the EXIF, wondering why the camera can't just display the time in the viewfinder since it already knows. :D
