During the last 25 years, I had a number of camera's starting with a Canon A1 in 1978 to my first digital shooter a Nikon Coolpix 5000, till I fell in love with my current Nikon D100 in New York.
Dreaming of things which are too expensive to buy, or for which you don't have a real need professionally, is still fun. So here is my wish list. I think the latest Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II's or Nikon's D2X come very close, but there is still some room for improvement. I’ve also added "compatible with my current lenses", which, in my case, means another Nikon, but this very specific to my personal situation.
