Has anyone had a go with the !D S (studio) yet ?
I think it's due in the UK in november and will retail for a whopping £7000 !!
I am a TV and film stills photographer and have yet to use a digital for my work but I think this one might be the one. It's a full 35mm sensor so your lenses are
the normal focal length.....If anyone has used one,are they really "as good as film" as quoted by Canon in their
press release ?

Where did you order it from, and what is £7000 in USD?
