Not sure we have any billionaires here in NZ. In any event, if we did, he / she would probably be living a quiet suburb and driving an old Ford Cortina bought second hand in 1979, not dabbling in photography.
And i don't care to be rich if i live in NZ, i have been there and loved it a lot, wish to live there, and for sure i will have the best shots of landscapes i can do from there.That's why NZ's my kind of place!
Guy, I had a chat to Dr.Claus Molgaard (P1 head of R&D) about this in Cologne. The problem is heat related. I had noticed the black pixels that are a symptom at less than 60 sec on my P65+. I was working on a night shot in the Arabian desert at 50deg ambient temp (yes, 50deg at night!) and my back was HOT, as well as being activated for 50+sec exposures. We've since started applying cold gel-packs to the back when we do longer exposures and this helps heaps. Taking the long exposure slider in C1 to 100% doesn't degrade the overall image noticeably as it selectively targets the black pixels. Carrying gel-packs is a bit of a drag but hey, it sure expands the performance envelope of the back!
