A fascinating announcement by Mamiya:
http://www.dpreview.com/news/1010/10102906mamiyarz22.asp
This fascinating camera, the Mamiya RZ22, with a 48 x 36 mm, 22 megasensel sensor (clearly "larger than full frame" - how can that be?), is available at an announced US price of $11,499.00. Will, you can certainly afford that.
Now lets see - its crop factor would be about 0.72. That is, if we took the sensor of a full-frame 35-mm size digital camera, 36 x 24 mm in size, and cropped out of it a portion 48 x36 mm in size . . .
Oh, well, algebra confuses me.
Best regards,
Doug
