Consumer Reports likes the $900 Nikon Coolpix 5700 (5 megapixel), which has an SLR type form factor but is not a true SLR. CR: "You want it all even at a price. Large and heavy, even for a 5-megapixel model, but its images are excellent and it's loaded with features, including 8X optical zoom."

No. I'm talking about the D1 which a few months ago was over 2 grand, but is now down to $1400. I'm hoping it drops to $1G or less with the upcoming D2 release. I refuse to spend more than that.
I've got a decent slide scanner, I just don't have the time to sit in front of it.
A friend is a pro and she's had the Canon SLR system for a few years now. Very cool stuff. Just wondering if the digital dream is worth pursuing or if I should pull the Holga out of the camera bag and have some fun.
