Thought you said price no problem?

Too cheap?

Panasonic LX5 for the lady?

Basically the same camera as the Leica D-Lux5 but for 200+ quid less

Not standard but you can buy a live-view viewfinder which fits to the hotshoe at extra cost of course.

Pretty amazing price too, nearly £2400 for the D800 body, even higher for the D800E.

What could you do with 36 megapixels? a 7360x4912 pixel image - enough for a 3 foot by 2 foot print while still keeping the 200 ppi resolution that seems to be the rule of thumb for prints at arms length viewing distance.

And how much storage would a RAW image from that bad boy need?

They are great Cobby.

1. Not a lot to laugh about these days in Manchester City centre so it's good to see Manc humour is still alive and kicking.

2. What a great advertisement. Which reminds me it's been a long time since we had a night at the Dogs. Will have to get on to our friends and book a meal out at the Racetrack.

Re: CF: Clickers Corner

2.16m Euros for a Leica null-serie:
Quote:
A prototype Leica camera has sold for 2.16m euros (£1.74m), setting a new world record for a camera.

It was one of just 25 models created in 1923 as a prototype for the groundbreaking Leica A, which was the first commercially successful compact camera to use 35mm film.

Branded the "null-serie", or 0-Series, only 12 are known to have survived.
