Medium Format Digital Camera Is a Whopping 56 MP

I just ran into an interesting article about new medium format digital cameras coming out this month.

Until I read this article, I thought I had a fairly decent camera, a 12 MP Canon D5 with a full frame sensor (35 X24 mm).

Now I read that there is a Mamiya DM56 that’s coming to market this month. It’s one camera I’ll probably never see in my hands. It makes my camera look like a beginner’s.

However it is exciting to know that such a camera even exists. The DM 56 (it has 56 MP) camera has a sensor size of  56 X36 mm. It costs nearly $33,000.

Ouch, I wouldn’t be able to carry that much credit card debt.
