wow $6K.
i'd get it for you but i'm a canon 'fan' and don't like
nikon.
their lenses focus in the wrong direction.

Wasn't there a similar debate years ago about
Rodenstock vs
Schneider lenses? :)
More to the point, the D4 is supposed to be built
like a tank for
heavy duty use by photo journalists, etc. Thing is for my
personal use,
I see no need for it over my Nikon D7000, which is about
1/6th the
cost. On the other hand, when the new 36 meg, full frame
D800 comes
out..... temptation, temptation.........
Bottom line is, I love my D7000, but with the new year,
I am looking
at stocking up on some more 4x5 tri-x. Totally
different animals, but
I love my Nikon D7000 as much as I love my Tachihara 4x5.
I figure
it's like owning a Mustang and a Jeep at the same time,
just depends on
where you are going and what kind of mood you are in.
:D
There was a long standing debate regarding Canon vs:
Nikon lenses and another regarding Zeiss vs: Schneider,
probably others too. I suppose someone with a real optical
lab could resolve (ouch!) this.
