the article on Luminous Landscape
(http://www.luminous-landscape.com/essays/pie-show.shtml) says competitive
with the price of the Mamiya ZD. since the ZD is slated to list for $12K
USD, it only firms up my assertion that the 645D will come in at a list
price of between $10K and $11K USD. they can't charge the same since it's 18
megapixels vs. 22 megapixels. 6 times the price of the 645 is 6 times a
little less than $2K = about $11K. street price will be pretty close to that
for quite a while after first delivery.
even after all this, where is the new wide angle 645D lens? the D has a 1.3
crop factor. what is the point of a body designed to be superb at landscapes
without a wide enough angle lens to do any landscapes?

I'm far more optimistic. I think it will cost $6000.
