Digital BW, The Print

Tomoc,

Thanks for the heads up on the Nikon D1's.  This line of Nikons are pricey, at least
for the features they have.  I figure the Nikon name is probably good for a grand of the
$5,000-$6,000 price tag.

I will pass along the web site Paul mentioned in his reply about the Fuji.  Lots of features.

Thanks again.

I'd suggest not judging until you shoot a D1x and look at the images...it is
a spectacular camera.
