Very interesting and cool, at a nice price, too.

8 mega-pixel only?

The megapixel myth, by Ken Rockwell (http://kenrockwell.com/tech/mpmyth.htm).

And while reading that article I saw this:

Digital does not replace film. Just look here for why a magazine like Arizona Highways simply does not accept images from digital cameras for publication since the quality is not good enough, even from 11 megapixel cameras, to print at 12 x 18."

Reminds me of when we'd hear that HDNet and Discovery HD wouldn't accept HDV, only HDCAM, DVCPRO HD and the like. Even though I've seen several HDNet Z1u cameras a couple of years back.

HDV compared with real HD is like comparing 35mm still film with medium format, is it not? I prefer 35mm so I must prefer HDV. :-)
