I have accurate information that it is smaller than the D80 apart from one dimension where is is about 2mm more. I suspect that it is the width, something to do with the grip size. Richard -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Robb

Raw rules! But in addition to PEF (if they insist on keeping it), please implement compressed DNG properly with full sized embedded JPEG in-camera as an option. Smaller file sizes = faster write times = more shots per card = less time dumping to storage tanks (saves batteries/charge) = also

That's why the 1800 has one of the highest clogging rates of any of the latest Epson printers! The R2400 is worth every penny, minimal issues, better image quality :) - More money :( You often get what you pay for! Richard -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

That would make AF possibly even faster than any in-lens motor system and makes all the legacy glass have AF as well! The challenge I see is that, apart from wide angle lenses, the sensor wouldn't be able to move anything like far enough! Imagine a 200mm macro range! Richard -Original

Now that's very interesting! A tilt and shift sensor, that would be really neat! Never mind automatic, you could control it with the 4 way control or maybe even the hyper-program wheels. Richard -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vic
