Are you sure it's 2,000, not 20?:-).

I just thought of a reason why Canon *might* go to an outside supplier:

they'll certainly go to outside suppliers rather than give up market
share by cutting production. Market share is Canon's overriding goal:

This is untrue. Canon has made their reputation in digital through
consistently increasing the quality of their DSLRs and being two steps
ahead of everyone else in doing so. Since the 1Ds, image quality is

It is the vision that keeps Canon ahead of everyone else. They were w

"So guess what. Suddenly the 35mm PJ "flagships" are in disgrace,
and you can't use those anymore for your marketing."
This is great news. Since they are not longer useful for PJ's or
marketing, there is a real chance Pentax will finally release one.8^)
Seriously, I think this post is dead on.

Um, this 16x20 I have sitting here suggests 6M works ok for big
prints. I've seen nice 11x14's from a

Hi Mark,
One of my con
Why do you say that?
The average snapshooter (and PJ) only needs 2mp (adequate for a 4x print,
web page, or e-mail).
People photographers (portrait, wedding, candid, etc.) need more, around
14mp (adequate for an 11x14 print).
Fine art and advertising photographers can use whatever they can get.

You could very well be right. I did not think

This is untrue. Canon has made their reputation in digital through

We're living interesting times. PJ and amateur's interests have started
to diverge, so the traditional Nikon scheme doesn't work anymore. It
will be fun to watch their attempts to getting out of this situation.

This has been true and one of the reasons why Nikon cannot get out of its
APS size CCD dilemma. Many are predicting that their DSLR won't (and can't

The funny part of the story is that AF marketing was largely using the
PJs as "models" of photographers worth following. Which was quite
adequate,
