[Leica] Looking for a fast stage event camera

[hcummer at gmail.com (Howard Cummer)]

Hi Richard,
Hope you and the family are well. Please have a look at the Nikon D800E (the 
E indicating no filter over the sensor).

I just recently sold mine as I move to the Nikon Z mount and looking back at 
the photos I took with the D800E
it was a great performer for its time and 36mp will still print big if 
required.

Howard
