Probably not. Apart from the resolution, that's a 20D. And the new 10MP
1.7x crop Sony DSC-R1 coming in at $999 argues that the resolution is
in the pricerange.
In fact, he's pretty much nailed the expected specs and pricing of the
supposed Nikon D200.
My wishlist:
In-body IS
3fps to 20 JPEG frames/10 RAW frames.
CF support or CF+SD support with better write speed, ideally 7-8MB/sec
DNG support or better compression in RAW
RAW+JPEG, with B&W JEPG support (Preferably with selectable colour
filters a la 20D)
Full K/M support (A man can dream)
beefier AF motor. Something akin to a Nikon F100's motor.
Support for in-lens AF motors (Leading to USM, Pentax lacks this, Nikon,
Canon, Sigma and Konica Minolta all offer this)
ISO and WB settings via buttons so that selection doesn't force you to
drop out of shooting mode.
ISO listed in VF LCD
100% 0.95x pentaprism viewfinder

Subject: Re: Irrelevant Poll: What do you WANT in a digital camera?
I want relatively high resolution, 12 megapixels or so. I want low
noise at speeds up to 1600. If that can be accomplished with an APS
sensor, fine. I want five frames per second and a buffer large enough
for 20 shots. $2000. Controls just like the *ist D would be perfect.
