Let's hope it will be better than Kodak's CMOS sensor used in DCS-14x models. It wasn't too good noise-wise.

And it is not so unlikely if you consider that Kodak's FF DCS-14 bodies that uses either F80 or SD-10 body as base (so they must buy it from someone else) sell for abut 4000$. > and some darn fast AF... I think it will use AF sensor array as used in *istD/Ds. So they better improve its low-ligt performance, otherwise it will be just "some darn slow AF" ;-) > If not, I would > share Rob's scepticism. Although, I am not a sceptic. I just laughed > at all the threads on dpreview about D2X vs 1DSII. Both are great cameras. I wish Pentax could produce *istD succesor with 12MPix sensor as used in D2X. And AF performance at level of D2X would be nice too ;-) -- Balance is the ultimate good... Best Regards Sylwek
