In my mind (a dangerous place to be), I will know that the digital SLR has come of age when the manufacturers begin to market something other than their latest and largest megapixel rating. ("Our latest camera has more megapixels than the competition. That's all you need to know.")

One of the things that's always bothered me is the lens conversion factor. You know, take your 35mm lens focal length and multiply by 1.5 or some such factor to get the focal length of this lens when you throw it on to a DSLR. I understand that one manufacturer - Kodak or Sony - has introduced a product that brings the lenses back to the areas that I am accustomed to. Do any of the other manufacturers see this as a problem that needs to be corrected, or are they just content to invent a whole new world?
