computerin Canada,
But I'm starting to see cameras that were $5000 appearing on
the used market. I am looking at picking up a Kodak DCS
Pro/14n which was in that price range, and has a full-frame
35mm 13.7Mpel CCD, a pro-quality Nikon body and takes the
full range of Nikkor lenses, and I'm planning on spending
$500-750 for a lightly used body. You can get deals on
digital SLR if you're in the market.
That particular camera turned out to be a very impractical one,
unfortunately. Megapixels are not the only measure of a CCD's quality.
Sometimes they aren't even the best measure.
Film easily outresolves this particular camera, although for certain types
of photography it is quite capable.
