Thew future - When wil they bring out a slr that shoots very sharp at fstop 16

[macro junkie]

i was thinking..its the year 2007 and we stil havent brought out a slr that alows u to shoot from 1:1 -5:1 at fstop 16 and get super crisp shots like a lordv or allic stack..u think this might be pos one day?

Not possible when using a normal camera and lens. It's just the physics of the thing - can't be got round.
There was some interesting research on a camera with special micro lenses over the sensor last year which with the help of a super computer was able to reconstruct a completely in focus image at any plane within the FOV but don't think that's practical quite yet. You could also just about imagine an auto stacking camera that very quickly did the shot slices and put them together in camera but don't think that's likely either :)

thats what i would think the best way to do it would the cameras would have to be really advanced and hella fast for that though.
