Digital BW, The Print

Take a gander over to the D1 list.  WHY spend $4000 on a 300 2.8, when the
80-200 now does the job?  Why spend $7000+ on a 400 2.8, when the 300 2.8
works.

If it's any clue, read the specs on the new 12-24G.  The COI is made for the
current CCD. It will not work on film cameras --except as an artsy lens. 

As one person over there also pointed out, it's not the size or shape of the
CCD that is now as important, it's the quality and resolution they are
concentrating on.  Canon is doing the same thing.

Think of it as: 120 comes in this size, 35mm comes in this size, and digital
comes in this size.  The D series - either Nikon or Canon, is NOT 35mm.
They are working bodies adapted to digital.
