Think of the PC. Years ago if you wanted to upgrade you had to get a new PC. Now, if you want a new processor, you replace it, more memory, add it, faster video, throw in a new video card. Now, back to the DSLR. Want a new processor, tough, a new sensor, tough, more features, buy a new model. When will the rest of the industry get on the ball and give us a truly modular DSLR. By the way, I just found a firmware hack for my XTi that opens up a the ISO from 1600 to 3200 and unlocks the sensors 1 deg. spot meter. I hate yo say it but, I think Ricoh is on to something.
