   Hopefully its better than TAMRON.

   Same sales strategy book, though… (maybe it works?

   Maybe the first camera to exceed the 100 megapixeles count?

   we were looking to upgrade our 39mpix H2D to 60 mpix . Our local Hasselblad dealer told us that the 60 mpix will be avaible (about) the beginning of February.
   Times match.

     A revived xpan would be nice though. Even 16MP will suffice.

   They are making a medium format version of the Leica X1 and are charging $50,000USD for it! It’ll come in a nice box with magnets and drawers too :^)

   Launch of H4D. Something expensive from the makers of Reference(TM).

    I heard it’s a DSMC (Digital cinema camera), to counterstrike RED digital cinema right in the face…

    You guys all have it wrong. They’ve teamed up with NASA and a yet to be announced phone maker to offer a super-smartphone with a 24mp medium format camera, a giant 5″ touch screen and proprietary 3D GPS that works anywhere in our solar system. It will only cost $48,000 and require a special monthly contract of $1400 through your local wireless provider.

    Regardless of what they announce, it will be extremely expensive. (Ugh, I want!)
