new review of Pentax 645D

[tml]

Do you know anyone in Houston who has one? I am seriously contemplating getting one.

There is one on the forum. I think I marked the thread.

Carrolton: Yosemite Set

I guess that is a no from me. I just can't get myself to pull the trigger on one without trying it.

Especially since the Genesis has made a dent in Mercedes/Lexus etc sales and the Equis may do even more.

I guess if I shot landscape for a living or for publication this would be awesome. But looking at the comparisons from the 5d mark II I did not see it worth $7500 more.

But again if I was in the industry or if this was a profession it would be a different story.

Just published - a quick Pentax 645D sample gallery: Digital Photography Review

If I could somehow pull off this and an M9...

I bought one and did not keep it long. The IQ is amazing, ergonomics are great, solidly built, etc. My biggest problem is having to wait a few seconds after exposure before the image appears on the screen. I could not justify keeping it since my work is not allowing me to take trips to scenic areas often enough to justify its depreciation. I still prefer my M9! By the way, I still have the fantastic and minty FA 45-85 with box and everything for sale!

What did you do with the camera??
