Don't you think the price of medium format digital cameras is a little absurd? Let's take the 51 megapixel Pentax 645Z, for example. At $7000, you get 51 megapixels. That might sound like a lot of megapixels, but keep in mind that they're coming in at a cost of roughly $137 per megapixel! At that rate, Pentax is only offering just a little more than 7 megapixels per one thousand dollars. Canon's 50 megapixel camera is much more budget conscious at $70 per megapixel. While that's a bit of a premium for the Canon brand name, seeing as you can get deals as good as $24 per megapixels from even Nikon's lower end cameras, it's a steal compared to the exorbitant prices proposed per pixel by Pentax.
