Re: Only $30,000
Not really a camera most of the members would be interested in as it is just a 2MP a video camera.

Re: Only $30,000
There really isn't anything new under a photographic sun...
My Minolta 7000AF - released 1985...
It doesn't shoot video but ye can induce some camera shake for "realism"...
Ye can buy the same camera today for around 30 GBP (with 50mm/f1.7 lens)

Re: Only $30,000
Even if it is just 2megapixel, still interesting but the price is a bit prohibitable for simple folks like me...

Re: Only $30,000
30.000 bucks for taking 2MP pictures in total darkness, eh? I trust they will have low noise and a good dynamic range, though.
What I find interesting is that this item, a speciality obviously meant primarily for videos, is looked at as a photographic camera, too, as are mobile phones, tablets, dashboard cameras, cameras on racist and other policemen, all leading to instagram, snapchat, selfies, groupies... I fear we are all already moving away from a photography which defines itself as a concern with single pictures, towards a sea of pictorial irrelevance in which we find our reality reflected. Expression, the aspect of art, all get lost on this way, and we will perhaps end up seeing reality in the images themselves rather than in what they reflect.
