Would you believe a 60 mega-pixel Nikon camera  or greater within eighteen
months or so?

New technology is around the corner, up to 300 mega-pixel may be possible!!

The new (3,538,944 x 3)  F07-35X3-A25B image sensor chip means 10 MP is here
now with Foveon.

Color film will be DEAD within a couple of years for most purposes.
IMHO It will be like the typewriter's and Polaroid's demise all over again

Thanks for all the replies that everyone sent.

Nikon told me they were coming out with a new 6.1 mega-pixel camera this
summer call the D100.  The multi-function battery pack is not part of the
camera and has to be purchased separately, but I'm sure it's worth the extra
cost.  Nikon said it's a great camera for weddings.

 for list instructions.
