The Kraken:Jam,
I'm not pursuing the professional route again!
Just want someting that will give me better than average "vacation" camera abilities.
Depth of field control, detachable strobe for better lighting control, etc.
TTL strobe control.
I'd prefer something that's not enclosed in a separate housing.
Any recommendations would be welcome.
Let's say a top budget range of $1500.

The Kraken:Yep, that would include a strobe.
If you guys have recommendations, please do so.
But, please, don't get caught up in arguments about one system versus another.
Let me figure that out for myself, OK?????

Kim:Lag time is primarily an auto focus problem - this is solved with DSLR cameras. There is also the lag with fast frame repetitive shots because of the time required to write to the card, but in all seriousness U/W this isn't a real problem. Unless you can remain absolutely still in the same position you really need to recompose every shot. i admit though that it takes a few seconds to write a RAW shot to the card before you can shoot again.
K, I'm getting more use than ever out of my old F3s and F4s, shooting B+W. Enough so, that there's now a new darkroom in my house.The Kraken:<snip>
I'm wondering if there is any logic in buying a film camera nowadays.
