The Camera I Think I'll Buy When I Win The Eurolottery

    The Hasselblad H2D 39.

    The world's first 39 Mega Pixel digital camera.

    Each image size: 78MB.

    Thankfully it takes an 80GB CF card that will store 1500 images.

    There is the minor irritant of the price.

    Can't find a European price (I didn't look to hard) but in the US it costs............$31,000.

    Don't all rush out to buy one.

    Yeah, I saw that. If I got my hands on one I'd just sell it straight on though. 39 Megapixels? Specialist use, completely impractical for every day use. I'd be happy with 10MP to be honest...

    When I win the Euromillions I'll get Hasselblad to make a H3D with a square sensor, most Hasselblad users hate that fact that the H2 and H1 are rectangle.

    I'll get two 1D MKIIn's with a full set of Canon L lenses and then store them all in the guest bedroom of my new 5 million euro boat :D

    Err, maybe one 1Ds too just for balance. Ahh shur, and a Nikon D2X just to mess around with.

    Yeah, but if youve just won a few mill on the lotto, a few 3 grand cameras are a drop in the ocean. Hell, I'd buy a 1D MKII for every regular on the photography forum :D

    That is a binding contract btw... (lol) :D

    80GB CF card... you'd need a few terabytes on your computer then... the highest capacity laptop is what 250GB? Or maybe get Dell to really personalise your computer and build it from scratch :D
