on a mamiya. oh man was it sweet. my school is picking up 2 of them for the studio, with dedicated g5 towers for each. The wireless jpeg thumbnail to the PDA was sweet, you can check out the histogram and everything right away from up to 50 feet away. oh man this thing was sweet.

While I realize everything is relative, I just don't see how something like that can be worth (or cost) so much when one can buy a Honda Accord for the same money. I realize they are manufactured in much less quantities, but surely there is hundreds if not thousands more parts in a car than in that. In a few years, that will probably cost two thousand. Then I'll buy two.

The first one cost $1,000,000 to make. The rest cost about $500 each.
