Any lobang for film scanners or not?

Heard that they will be previewing their "latest digital professional camera"... ??

I went there earlier on and did not see any "latest digital professional camera". Maybe I missed it.

For those of you who want to just buy the camera with the freebies, that is a no go as well. Just FYI.

hello,

i will be making my way there this evening, perhaps to humour myself just by looking at the prices offered for the photographic equipments.

hopefully it will be a good trip.

Actually, from what I see, the offers are not all bad ... at least what they are offering is quite competitive with the usual market practice (by Oly, Canon, Fuji, etc) Lets face it, nothing is free and while the prices may look "steep", the freebies thrown in are IMO rather attractive and practical for those who can put them to good use (esp for people who are starting out).

As a sidenote, I can see that they are offering Nikon/Crumpler bags for the F75 too, that's quite a refreshing change from the old traditional camera bags with manufacturers logo the market used to provide, IMHO that's a really value added item.

Looking further and taking the D100 and D1x as an examples, the freebies thrown in includes,
- an Akarui dry cabinet (about $180+ in CP?)
- a shooting vest ($50+?)
- a LCD protector ($5?)
- a 512/1GB CF card (about $180/$370)
... approx market rate of about $415 and $605 respectively

Well, these are rather practical items from my POV ... Most importantly, for anyone who is going for the Epson color printer (C900), that's an approximately $400 savings outright from the already offered price of $1499 in the show, quite significant if you ask me.

Just my 2 cents worth ...

You didn't see the D2H in the HOLOGRAM??

Went there today.
Apart from fiddling with all the other prosumer cameras + ogle at the F5s + D1x + F100 + holographic image of D2x...

There are no offers for any film scanners.
Not even for Minolta.

But picked up a Coolscan IV brochure though.
