Top 5 Cameras You Wish You Could Afford
      


1. Hasselblad H3DII-39MS SLR Digital Camera Kit with 80mm Lens

Price: $42,995

I'll take the Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III. Oh, the Hasselblad is selling for $7,519.99 on Amazon everyone. Though, it may be an old one or something. There's just one left.

Proof:

I'll rather have the H3DII-50 with more megapixels...

And for the resolution a 4x5" scanning back would be nice too http://www.betterlight.com/fullRes_zoomifyLIST.html

And then of course the boring EOS 1ds mk III

that was thought too. (as well as what has to do with snap)

I wonder how many are using the 1dsmkIII or nikon d3, I dont really see these as mind blowing (maybe I should?? :)).  and the leica? $5k? maybe if you've got a long history of rangefinders, personally I'll pass.

@Bateleur:

Resolution: Firmware suggests 6,048 x 4,032 (24.4 MP) and 5:4 at 5,056 x 4,032.
Frame Rate: Extrapolation tells us a D3X will be 5FPS; 8 FPS in DX crop.
Nikon's botched v1.10 firmware for the D3 of 15 April 2008 confirms the D3X as 24.4MP

In der Firmware zur D3 - Teil B - findet sich u.a. folgende Sequenz in mehreren Sprachen, die offensichtlich aus den Menüstrukturen stammt:
Fertig 6048 x 4032 (24,4 M) 4544 x 3024 (13,7 M) 3024 x 2016 ( 6,1 M) 5056 x 4032 (20,4 M) 3792 x 3024 (11,5 M) 2528 x 2016 ( 5,1 M) 3968 x 2640 (10,5 M) 2976 x 1976 ( 5,9 M) 1984 x 1320 ( 2,6 M) Die Firmware kann mit den gegenwärtigen Einstellungen nicht aufgerüstet werden. Es können nur Bilder im NEF-(RAW-) oder JPEG-Format ausgewählt werden, die mit einer D3X aufgenommen wurden. NCD3X OK
