I think a D3 is right for me.

I notice that they didn't mention any of the REALLY nice high-end hardware:

Hasselblad H3DII-39MS

Image Sensor 36.7 x 49.0mm, 39 Megapixel CCD
Effective Resolution 39 million pixels
Color Depth 48-Bit RGB
Color Modes Full Color
Image File Formats RAW 3FR, TIFF (8-bit)
Recorded Resolution 5412 x 7212 pixels

Comes with 80mm f/2.8 HC Auto Focus Lens (which alone sells for a little bit over $2,000 at B&H)

All for a mere ...

$43,995.00

(By the way, folks - my birthday is next week! Just sayin'.......

)

I was reading that the Hasselblad is only good for studio work. For action, sports/nature...etc the D3 or a Canon 1D is better suited.

I have seen studio work from the Hasselbald though. The colors and sharpness are (drool)

I like the D3 also - with a 300 backup

I'd love to get one of those big fancy cameras but 1) I don't have the coin 2) I'm so on the go i can't be weighed down with extra equipment and 3) I have nothing lacking that i need to compensate for...
What I have seems to work for me just fine 85% of the time even tho its always a real challenge to get any kind of good shot.
