There are seven columns of selectable AF points in the viewfinder but nine columns of physical sensors in the AF module.

That makes sense - I didn't count those columns.

The difference between a boy and a grown-up man is the price of his toys.

The final countdown

If I fly over the International Date Line, I can find out sooner and tell everyone. Wait! If I go the wrong way, I'll have to wait an extra day. Cancel that idea.

I cannot image that the first person to find out will not tell everyone on the forum, as will the second and the third and the fourth etc

How many separate threads will be started within the exact same minute?

As with all "major" piece of news here, it will likely end up with a truckload of threads dealing with the very same subject.
I recall having had a tough time navigating through the K5 threads when it was "officially" announced and this will obviously follow suit !

I hope the mod's will be able to sort them out ... i.e.: delete/merge/close at will!
