If it covered the full frame, which I doubt. The 12-24 Nikon won't cover a full frame until about 20 mm.
Check out these stats << DIGIC II Image Processor for outstanding image quality and performance - 3.0 fps for up to 60 consecutive JPEG or 17 RAW frames in a burst. >> Time for the 4 gig flash card! Harold
Canon also slipped in a couple of new lenses too: EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM & EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Harold
Harold, the Nikon D70 can do 3fps JPEGs for as long as there's space on the card and you keep your finger on the shutter. No limit! You must use the speedier cards like the Sandisk Ultra II series.
I'm already trying to figure out how I can make a 5D a "need" item. I bet we see them < $3k in post holiday sales.
