Read the link Mike...?? Posted a couple of days ago...?? ![]()
Very interesting for people such as myself who were thinking of buying a 1DS MKIII
Quote: Don't understand what the link has to do with the current situation? The camera has now been released.
( THUD!! )
Did you read the content of the 'Pentax' link I posted Mike ????? I'm not about to give you a history lesson here. In other circles it's called 'h-u-m-o-u-r'...
I think as opposed to missing the boat, I think they got on the wrong one and instead of a cruise to the caribbean, they are now in a pedalo off the coast of Iceland.
Spot on Matt. So very sad but - very good to see another great name pick up the MF digital flag and run with it.
I would not say that Pentax missed the boat, Mamiya has been on the cards for a while and they don`t make dslr`s ![]()
Quote: What is the Mamiya ZD if it's not a dslr

I was simply referring to the fact, they don`t make 35mm/or cropped DSLR`s like Nikon/Canon etc, where as Pentax do ![]()
