NOW THAT IS ONE SWEET CAMERA!!

I met a professional navy photographer last week and he had a very nice looking stabilised lens, which cost around $4000. - lens only!
(He was using a Nikon D1X)

It was a great idea to integrate the stabiliser into the camera.

Kudos to Minolta, I just looove the way it looks too.
