Yes you may dare!!!  That's a really good point. The DMR samples
I've seen on the Web look pretty fabulous. I recall one early shot that
someone posted either here or pnet looked quite a bit like Kodachrome.
A different look.

So there's an interesting datapoint. What's the nature of the difference
between the DMR and a D70/D200?  Firmware? Inquiring minds want
to know :-)
