    Only ~$4,000. Yikes. Not to mention you'll likely need the very best optics available to resolve those pixels, else you're images will look soft.

    99% probability of a 36 megapixel sensor??? Seriously? 99%? As in, a one percent change of error or that prognostication? Doubtful. Dubious.

    The rumor is that it will not be your typical Bayer type sensor, it will be a Foveon sensor (3x12MP sensors - one for each color channel). NR is also saying to expect more than one version of this body.

    Should be interesting.

    $4000 really isn't that much for a 36 MP beast....but then again, there are other features of the camera that contribute to the price, and the market Nikon is hoping to capture.

    That would tasty! Maybe that's at the root of the 36mp rumour. 36 seems too much otherwise for this size sensor.
