The new Pentax 645D is one of the most exciting cameras to come along this year. This 40 Megapixel medium format camera functions like a current 35mm SLR, and is much less expensive than comparable high end cameras.

The Camera Store's Chris Niccolls and a small crew decided to test Pentax's claims of a rugged, weather-sealed body delivering professional image quality. Check out the video to learn our impressions!

    We did. Just search for the D800e vs Pentax 645D with With Nick Devlin.

    @MrEagle912 The Hassie Multishots are great cameras, but only for completely static subjects. Since the images are created through multiple exposures, any movement will ruin an image. The Multishots are best for reproduction and architecture work. Also, unlike the Pentax 645D, the Hassies are not weather sealed.

    You probably saw the 645 (original), not the 645*D* (digital).
