Acadia,

I think you hit the nail on the head with Nikon's culture. However, if they intend to survive in the pro market that culture NEEDS to change. I love their products, and I really, really want them to stay competitive, but if their products don't sell, then they don't have money for R&D, and we die-hard fans lose out in the end.

As for the D2H, something needs to be done about the image quality. It has a terrible repuation for being merciless with exposure and white balance settings unless you want noise soup. It takes great images if all conditions are perfect, but how owften does that happen? Especially in their target market, journalists and sports shooters, it seems that the D2H is making a sizable amount of people very upset. I am holding out, maybe they'll somehow get it resolved. I have plenty of time before I can even start considering getting another body.
