Tina,
Unlikely that I would want to, at that price. I would buy a Nikon 
D80/D200 or an equivalent Canon at one fifth the price. maybe even a 
Panasonic or Sony with a 10MP chip. I would forgo 2500 ASA, and shooting 
at night without a tripod and save US$4000. So be it. This is my 
opinion. Yours might be different and I respect that.
Cheers
Jayanand
