Building on the success of the H1 range of products, Hasselblad has
developed the H2D fully integrated digital camera.
Apparently it is the first digital camera to save in Adobe's "DNG"
format. Nice bit of gear. http://www.hasselblad.se Now how much?

Douglas,
You never really make it on the 'net
until you get your own personal Troll.
Mine's called Chrlz. Don't feed him, he bites!

The Leica DMR back was the first case I know of to use DNG as its raw
format, about 10 weeks ago:

Why is it that top-of-the-line manufacturers like Hasselbland, Rolex, Omega,
Brietling always seem to have the most awkward, dysfunctional websites?

They pay the most money for them?
They have a "corporate image" which must be projected at all costs?
You are right, though!

From the looks of things, they're designed by ad agencies, which know
visuals but don't know web design.
I wanted to send a link to the product page to a friend who's been
hoping for something like this, but the braindead site design thwarted
me.
Sheer cluelessness.

It wasn't *that* hard to get; I clicked the right mouse button and
scrolled down to Copy Link Location, which I then Pasted into this msg.
Maybe it's your browser that's braindead. Or maybe...

Oh, I know I could figure it out what to do. But like many folks, I
didn't bother. The link belongs on the Address line.

because they want to design a web site, they treat it like a poster, or
tv or any other medium that can be controled not like the web, unlike a
website where the size of the screen may differ greatly from a tiny
laptop to a massive LCD, the browsers rendering will differ etc....

Too little, too late.
Pity.

And with their moronic framed web site, I can't send a link to the
product page to a friend who'd be a likely customer.
D'oh.

Wrong. The Leica Digital Modul-R was the first.
