Actually there is a big difference between 12-bit and 14-bit processing. 14-bit data processing has 4 times the information than 12-bit data processing.

I think so (2^14) / (2^12) = 2^2 = 4
Correct me if I'm wrong.

However, difference to our eyes is significant or not .... is different issue.

Your calculation is correct but your assumption is wrong. There is a huge difference when it comes to photo processing with that 2 extra bits. You'll get higher dynamic range and better noise control just to say the least.

If you think that there is no difference to the eyes, then you don't need a dSLR, right? Might as well just stick to camera phones since they use maybe 8-bits processing only and won't be different with 12-bits, right?

ya the extra 2 bit will give 4 times more colour rending. but we hardly see the difference. maybe useful in medium format.
same thing here. do you always notice the difference of a 5ms lcd and 2ms lcd?

OK, Sir. Thanks

hdd is not a problem for me, i have around half a tb of free space now since I stopped downloading tv series and porn. I'm trying to figure how to use them up memory card might be a problem.

A few months ago I heard about en EOS 3D. But untill today the released ones are EOS 40D, EOS 1D mkIII and EOS 1Ds mkIII. SO maybe the 3D is still there waiting to burst out....

erm....would it be nikon D3 n D300 ? new dark lord of nikon..

i thinks the price of wedding photography should not be derive fully on the gear. should be more to the photographer experience in wedding...how to compose, pose, candid, etc. the price is being paid for the quality, experience that the photographer had achieve not what gear is he/she is using..

once you see the difference, you will never want to go back to the noob DSLR.
try looking at a photograph taken using the digital back (16 bits)
blind wan also can tell the difference!

its like a normal tv vs HD 1080

blind one how to tel the difference ler... unless the photo become 3D.....

Well, I've seen the quality too. Of course it is worth the money he paid. What I'm comparing is price wise to be the same, you might not get such photographers who invest that much into their equipment. I've seen people paying RM8k for a package and get a photo shoot using a 400D. Which would you prefer? 5D or 400D?

I think it's just a metaphor.

any news about the update from 400D is it coming anything some, i am considering between d40x and 400d, but 400d have been out for more than a year, dont want to buy them after a few month comeout a new model.

@robertngo

No, I dont think the successor of 400D would be comin out that soon. Perhaps another 6 more months or more...

don't think like that or u'll end up not buying any camera. There will be always new model coming up. Just choose one that fit you now and some room for extension.

@robert

What vincent said is very true. Get one camera that suit you for the moment. The longer you wait the more models will be coming out. So when will you get your cam then?
