Most of what I know about Catholics and Catholocism comes from novels. There
were John Powers's trilogy about growing up Catholic in Chicago, starting
with "Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?" Later I read a
couple Irish novels: Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man and Angela's
Ashes.
Yup. That be the one...
Price is sure up there, tho'. Can't comment on that.
I paid $50 for mine, at a camera repair shop.

A 50mm f/1.4 l
EOS1Ds.
No it is not two small sensors glued together, at least that I have heard.
Most of these ICs have leads coming out all four edges so it would be hard
to do that (we are talking the chip now, not the package). Big chips have
low yields (that is a higher percent of defective chips per wafer)

Do it now.
Righ now.
I used to be happy with my LX, 2 K-1000s a half dozen lenses, my
6x7 and a few lenses, and the 4x5 and a few lenses.
The
Nikon rebate was supposed to end on 31Dec but has got extended to March 31.
In next PMA, camera makers may announce few more DSlrs. This may further bring down the
scanner prices.
I feel it's better to wait till PMA. I am also aiming for Nikon 4000 but waiting
Thanks
