Ka ching!

Its the 100th anniversary of Hasselblad and they are making people like me drool with their limited edition launch of the 503 CWD. A US$14 000 16 megapixel medium format digital camera? *note i mention price before specs for obvious reasons of shock and i didn't use digi i said digital.

At $14 000 not everyone can afford it. 14 kays in US can pay for my archi school fees man (but that's before the fee hike, see what a difference a fee hike makes?)

Damn this is one sexy camera. It has Carl Zeiss lens and proper ones not like those lousy el cheapo *ahem* ones found Sony . One lens from them can feed me for two years with cash to spare.

But only 16 megapixels? wah liew. not enough! at least double it. and will it give that classic shutter sound? no sound no good! And explain to me why they still have that winder by the side when your using sensor instead of sexy film? yes i said sexy. sounds abit dubious but i Checked the official website liao. Its true leh.

Shite i'm fantisizing now.
