DSLR Situation

ponti67 · 2010-05-09T21:56:12+0100

Pentax has only 2 DSLR bodies for sale. Sony has about 11. The P/S market is saturated and now the DSLR markethas reached the end of the line. Camera bodies were hitting the market about every 2 years. I am still using my K10 and ME. The Camera industry is being re-invented. It will settle somewhere between what Leica does and what everyone else does. The days of mass producing DSLR's are over. Prices have been dropping. I saw a brand new Nikon D700 for about 1,000 Pounds and the K-7 for about 400 pounds. I am about to purchase new lenses and computers before prices increase when the new generation of cameras are for sale.

What you have all failed to realise is that the above mentioned cameras were actually made by Pantex and Nickon. They are equipped with a Color Digital Lense!!!!!!

you don't have to be mad to post here

but it does help

This was our favourite scam...

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
