Very interesting, would love one of them.

Its funny though, Nikon many years ago teamed up with Kodak and they developed a camera, (801s with a battery pack looking thing) actually a brick looking thing connected to the back and bottom of the camera.

This was a digital back that was around 30MP which was back in the late 90's. Never took off, probably size of the unit and the cost was estimated at over a million at the time.

What is funny though is how this technology took so long to jump from under a megapixel to 5MP and know every year to two years they are doubling.

It is so good to be alive and in the technology age.
