But seriously, it will be interesting to see how the system will work when faced with challenging conditions. As when the lens is wide open, the film speed is high, the shutter speed is low... Will we get the same fall-off in quality at wider f-stops? Or about the same as with film? Is there a mirror-slap vibration problem at 1/15 or 1/30 as with some film cameras? I am also curious about the digital "film." If you have old and new CF cards (normal vs. "fast", "plus", or "ultra" cards), it would be interesting to see how well the firmware takes advantage of the theoretically higher write-speed of the so-called "faster" cards. Thanks! Stan
