Maybe I'm looking at only the bad images. These look pretty lousy to me.
I think it explains why the camera did not come out in March as it was
first projected.

One of my gripes with digital or maybe my Nikon D100 (Which I have be
using
professionally of 2 years now) is that the highlights blow out (no tonal
graduation)

This does not seem to be as much of a problem based on these pix.
