Just in case you were wondering what the pro photographers buy as digital cameras...

Well, actually, I think that most are still going for Nikon, Canon, etc. at under half the resolution since this is a SERIOUSLY silly price and not a particularly fast shutter, but if you need something like this you probably need it badly.

22 megapixels is kinda overkill, especially when you consider that a 4 megapixel 8 x 10 photo is about at the limit of the resolution of the human eye. Going to higher resolution won't add any detail that you can see without a magnifying glass.

Hasselblad stuff is seriously good though.

My brother's stepfather uses 22MP cameras (tethered to a maxed G5 and Photoshop) for professional Catalogue work.

You can zoom into the image quite some way (well a little way at least on those gigantic Apple Widescreen monitors).
