£4800 limit and no I'm not going to getting into eyeballs full of debt.... I'll hold out and wait for Kerso prices... the difference between the US and UK is ridiculous. £1500 in the US (which is more the price I was thinking for the camera). Looks a good camera though... comes out november

we're at about $1.7 = £1
worst it's been in the while... so it could have been even cheaper if this thing had been out a year ago y0

I've already bought into a system (canon)... I would loooovvve a d3 or d700 (which is the 5dmkII direct competition)... but the lens prices are still horrid. but no way in hell am I selling up and swapping systems as much as I like the top end Nikon stuff.

I'm confused, the target market for that camera should already be well aware that megapixels mean shit all these days...
weirdness!

youd think so ad's but then theyre driven by shareholders wanting more profits and megapixels = more sales to those who dont know any better etc?
