It feels just as solid as an R8, only smaller and lighter. It's much more solid than the D60. A friend of mine at work has one and I've processed some of his photos. Very impressive. It's not a consumer camera any more than a Nikon F100 is. Of course, spending more money gets faster and higher-resolution cameras, but that doesn't mean the D10 is any less a pro camera than a Leica compared to a Hasselblad. Maybe it's a matter of perspective. Many reviewers refer to cameras like the Digilux 1 or Canon G3 as "prosumer" cameras. So the meaning of the words pro and consumer almost lose meaning. Leave it up to marketing to muddy the language beyond recognition. On Sunday, August 17, 2003, at 04:47 PM, Doug Herr wrote: > The D10 is a consumer-grade camera.
