Pentax 645D - 40mpx monster for $ 10K
After three years of development, Pentax unveiled its new Pentax 645D reflex camera in Toronto.
The main features of the camera are as follows.
Dual SD card slot. On the body of the camera there are special buttons to switch the slot used. Thus, you can copy photos from one card on the go and continue to take pictures with the second one. Next comes the replacement. It is possible to logically separate frames by quickly switching from one card to another. It also significantly raises the bar for the amount of available memory, which is important with this frame resolution.

3-inch display with viewing angles of 170 ° . The main display, however, as the top, covered with real glass.
Accelerometers are built into the camera, which determine the exact position of the camera along all three axes, which allows you to adjust photos on the fly and get perfectly horizontal images.
The camera is able to shoot at a speed of only 1 frame per second, but at the same time you get 40! megapixel image with each shot. The sensor was developed by Kodak, measuring 44 by 33 millimeters, which is approximately 1.7 times larger than the standard full-length 35 mm sensor.
Pentax hasnot yet disclosed the release date and price, but apparently the camera will be available by the end of 2010, see UPD , and the price will be about $ 10,000.
