[QUOTE="crycocyon, post: 236849, member: 13076"] Funny enough I just learned about this camera today. I read the reviews. In principle I like this camera and thinks it looks great because I'm into the whole retro thing. At this point buying a camera like this would be an emotional decision, not necessarily a practical one since there isn't any void it would be filling in my very modest photographic arsenal. It would probably be a joy to own and use. But it would just be another nice camera. I don't see it as being worth it with a 16 mp sensor. I could see the price if it was a 24 mp sensor. I don't see why the shutter has such a low rating of 150k when you consider how robust this camera is built. All that aside, when I see sample photos from this camera posted here and on google searches I find myself really enjoying their quality. It isn't about the sharpness as I expect from a D800, there's something nostalgic about the quality, a certain depth or dimension coupled with realistic color rendition that I really like. Photos also look great in black and white. They almost look like photographs taken on film. [/QUOTE]
