The cost of a 24 x 36 6 miljon ccd chips is today around 2000USD.
Its takes months to make a chip.
Next generation of CMOS will probably cut down the price.
The resolution from 24 x 36 chip is better than Nikon D1X but not
significant much better. My friend Lars Kjellberg at Photodo have done
some tests regarding the new Kodak 760 , Nikon D1X
and Phase One backpack to Hasselblad. It was after this test I decide to buy
the Nikon D1X
If I use 100 ISO film and below there are more resolution, details in the
film , but the cleanness and colors are unbeatable in D1X.
