I can easily print grainless A4 size photos (8 1/2 x 11) at this resolution! It's a bunch of baloney that you need an $8,000 dollar camera to get a good 16x20 print! With my Nikon D40, ($500 with lens) (also 6mp max res), I can get grainless 16x20 prints shot in unmanipulated jpeg. The chart is totally theoretical and does not apply to real practice.

The body of the Nikon D3x, sans lens, will set you back around US$8,000. FYI, there's a camera store called Adorama that will ship to Australia (and almost anywhere else): http://tech.spotcoolstuff.com/adorama/home Zoe,

But it will be a while before it reaches the shores of Australia where I live. What is the expected price of this camera? Zoe I am just as excited by the Nikon D3x.
