I'm a little disappointed that it's not a full-frame sensor. The first manufacturer to make a camera like that gets my money. I understand why they did it, but I feel that a 24x36mm sensor would be a real coup, regardless of how fast/slow it might be. It's the only reason I don't have the D30 already! I've thought a little about digital M, and my requirements are pretty low. I wouldn't need a LCD screen, or different color balance gizmos and stuff. Just keep the current shutter (wow - wind a digital camera??), make the ISO wheel adjust the sensitivity of the sensor, and make it take CF2 cards. I'd be thrilled.

It's damned expensive (although no bad, considering a lesser camera cost over $10k not long ago), but the results and performance are amazing.
