In some ways this is water under the dam (or is it water over the bridge...?) but I am making some 11x17" prints for an upcoming exhibition many of which I took with the R-D1 this past summer and I am extremely impressed with the results.
The prints are black and white processed through EpsonRAW and PS CS2 and printed using Qimage using ABW mode on an Epson R2400.
I say "it is water under/over the dam/bridge" because I have sold one R-D1 and am waiting to conclude the deal on a second so I won't be creating any new photographs with this camera.
But... for those of you who own and use the R-D1, I don't think that you need envy any other digital camera. It is capable of stunningly detailed prints even with fair amount of cropping.
Clearly lower ISO performance is best but I am holding a beautiful 11x17" print exposed at 800 ISO that has sock-knocking potential.
I don't regret my decision but the R-D1 is a fine performer indeed.
