[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 78370, member: 6548"] I'm really surprised there hasn't been more comment on this thread. Think about how the DSLR consumer market (and the pro market for that matter) is so over saturated. Since the mid 2000's manufacturers have released model after model after model each and every year it seems. The marketing convinces us that the camera we bought last year is inferior to the camera they put out this year and the camera we bought 4 years ago that used to just blow us away with it's performance is now a total POS. It is almost like here in the last year or so they have finally hit the point of diminishing returns or the point of no returns. So in order to make the coin they are having to put "pro" stuff into the consumer models eg FX. The D600 is an example of this. I know there are many who will disagree with me on this one but to me the D600 is a high dollar consumer level camera but that is really another thread. I wouldn't be surprised to see a DSLR that will upload snaps to the internet through the camera here in the next few years. They've run out of gimmicks and features and they will have to come up with more soon or they will tick off their shareholders. It's all good but it is also insane if you ask me...the throw away society in full force. One of these days this is going to bite us in the @ss! [/QUOTE]
