Ok, so...I know what's I'm saving up for a whole year for!!! And to think i just got a 30D. hahahaha Sorry, I'm excited...

[thrasher]

10fps, that's pretty damn impressive. Still take a D200 though...guess I bleed Nikon

[Damien]

Bah! The D200 should bow before such royalty that is the MKIII

[Whumbachumba]

30 RAW images in burst mode. O_O That's alot of freaking data.

Anyone wanna go halves on a bank robbery?

[Damien]

I dont pay tax if I pay for the price my store sells it.

Stealing a car and taking it to a chop shop would be easier i think. lol

A friend of mine already has his own MK. II. i wouldn't be at all surprised if his company pays for a MK. III for him to use.

those cameras are hellishly expensive. i'm more than happy with my Konica-Minolta 5D, so i have no plans of getting another D-SLR for quite a while.

[Damien]

Need some lenses chris??? I got a few.

[2.2 Straight six]

it's ok, we've got plenty. everything from ultra wide-angle to telephoto to fixed-focal macro lenses for the Minoltas. my dad's been using them for years, so he has a number of Dynaxs and has a 7D, while my mum and i both have 5Ds. we've got enough camera gear for the meanwhile.

[Damien]

And if you want to hear what 10fps is like...

I don't think you will get a lot of reaction about a new camera on a car forum, but I can assure you the camera forums are all buzzing!

[Damien]

We are...but I know we have a lot of people that take good pics of cars and stuff. Still, that's a freakin' fast camera.

Damien - some shots taken with the Sony Alpha 100 DSLR, if you're interested... went alpha as I am still shooting with a KM wetfilm SLR and can use common glass...

[2.2 Straight six]

did you know the Alpha is basically a Dynax 5D with a new body and 10mp?

on the upside, there'll be a huge flood of new lenses for minolta cameras, Sigma are making more with the minolta/sony fitting.

[replicant_008]

ummm yeah... althiugh it does have steady shot, a new image processing engine and different dust protection. The Dynax connection was important - I have a Dynax 5 film camera so I keep a pile of lenses in the meantime....
