Digital BW, The Print

Diane, I still want the 12 megapixels, (11 is ok). Chip prices are
falling fast, and the new foveon chip will cause them
to fall faster. The current Sigma Foveon camera is (3) but effectively 9
megapixels, and is noticeably sharper than the D60. But the Sigma camera
isn't for me. a 4.2 megapixel Canon camera for 4000 dollars is nuts. I'd
never pay that much for 4 megapixels no matter how good the camera
itself was. I need the resolution, NOT the top of the line camera. I
have plenty of memory and speed to take care of the larger files. I
would NEVER spend 4000 dollars for a digital camera, so I'll wait until
I get what I want for $2500 or less. If it doesn't happen, I'll simply
live with my D60.

If you can live with 4 megapixel resolution. It still is far from a
bargain. The new Nikon/Kodak is 14 megapixels 
for $4000. Canon better get on board, or people are going to be
switching to the Kodak.
