With 802.11b wireless it is perfect for event photography where prints are done on 
location (like our PDML member who does horse shows).

I was just on the Nikon site looking at it.Its not quite double the D1 but at 4.X 
should
produce a nice
8x10 and or 11x14.Then i'd need a bigger printer.I think the Canon 9000 goes to 11x14 
but
i'd have to 
look.
Only thing is the 1/250 flash.I have 1/500 on the D1 and it still gives a bit of motion
blurr,but 
that also can be good.
Pentax 6x7 and Nikon 35mm(ish)digital may be the way to go,keeping the SP500 for 
IR and the SP for film.Hummm.

The Nikon F90/F90s and the Z-1/Z-1p have the same shutter from Seiko.

I think you need a Nikon on the Inside sticker on your camera.
No current Nikon shares shutters with a Pentax.

Hallo Pal,
if you look at dpreview, you will see a lot of complains about the sharpness
of the 24-120 VR.
Here is an example, which is realy bad

Now if an F6 or an F200 turns up soon, I might be tempted along with the
24-120 VR + the 200-400 VR lenses.

There are also three new DX lenses, a 10.5 fisheye, a 2.8/17-55 and a VR
4/200-400 all for a faktor of 1.5.

or cooperate on technology. 
The 200-400/4 AF-S VR lens is extremely interesting. Simply a dream lens for  many 
nature shooters. Everything from 400mm to 16mm is now in the realms of zooms. This is 
the market trend.

I went to the site and did a computer translation of the text.  The view of
the back at first makes the camera look like a D100 with the optional grip
but the translation describes it as a WI-FI or wireless network interface.
When you look at it again you will notice a cable from the wireless adapter
to the data port on the camera.  What's next?

wireless connections are old hat. some cameras taking PCMCIA memory cards from a few 
years ago allowed wireless network cards.
