Yeah, I went Canon for the simple fact that Canon had released three full-frame DSLRs while Nikon had yet to release a single one. Now? now I'm thinking of going Nikon again. I would argue that the worst thing about the early DSLRs were that they were crazy f'n expensive. Pepperidge Farm remembers.
In 1995, the DCS 460 was the highest resolution digital camera available and its list price was US$ 35,600. When it closed out in November 2000, the price had dropped to US$ 2,500.
Hahaha yeah I didn't get into it quite that early: Was a good camera but the battery life was awful. And the body had standard camera batteries for the "camera" part, provided by Nikon, while the digital sensor and other electronics were powered by rechargeable AA's.
