They come in 10 to a pack of $6. Much cheaper than a D3X in my book. Anyway, they also have some sales and vendor day, so I got to play with the M8.2 with the 21/1.4 'lux. That's a sweet combo. The gigantic multi-viewfinder actually looks kind of small. However did they make picture that makes it look the size of the camera? The 8.2 shutter is much quieter. I guess I will wait until the M9 comes out and pick up an M8.2 for $3000 then. Olympus is also there, and the new E-620 is amazing. It's the smallest dSLR with in-body stabilization, and most of the features of the E-30/E-3 in a package smaller than the lenscap of the S2 camera! No kidding. Anyway, gotta run, and will be testing the new sensors. Report soon/ -- // richard m: richard @imagecraft.com // w: http://www.rfman.com // b: http://rfman.wordpress.com
