Its not actually news ... many of us read about the monstrous 39 Mega pixel Digital SLR camera to be launched by Hasselblad in a certain past issue of DIGIT.
Well, its actually re-incarnated with some cool features and a now revealed price : $37,000 (Whoosh :o .... pay a little more... A New-Gen Corvette will be yours :D )
I would love to have that Auto GPS feature in any normal digital camera... like the place where the photo was shot would be tagged in the photo along with other details like time/date etc etc....
And I am actually thinking, what would happen to a computer where you want to load the RAW image file taken at 39 MP in some editor like Photoshop and all..... :o :D :D
Hasselblad may have already hit 39 megapixels more than a year ago, but that doesn't make the company's new H3D II DSLR any less impressive, which hits that same mark with a few other improvements. Those include a new 3-inch display, which promises both a clearer view of images and lower power consumption, as well as an apparently revamped menu system that'll let you tweak settings using the thumbwheel controls on the camera. Otherwise, you can expect just about everything you could ask for in a $37,000 camera, including 48x36 mm CCD image sensors (the largest currently available), a Global Image Locator that tags photos with the exact geographic co-ordinates at the time they were taken, and an array of features that promise to keep your shots free of noise and moiré effects, to name just a few. What's more, if 39 megapixels and $37k is just a bit too much for you, you can opt for one of two lesser models that Hasselblad's also just introduced, including the 31 megapixel H3D-31II ($30,000) and the 22 megapixel H3D-22II ($25,000).
