Ten years ago I was on vacation in the mountains, and shooting film only with a Fm2n. I used up ten rolls of film, and with no place to buy film, I pulled out my little used D100. I shot with a 135mm 2.8 Ais and a 15mm 5.6 Ai, and was totally surprised when I got home and viewed the pictures. That 6.1MP sensor really did a fine job, The color saturation was better than most film. Much of this also has to do with the lenses used.
That experience mad me a believer in digital photography.
Agree. Thanks to their strict CFA's the color saturation on these early CCD cameras is quite punchy. It allows the natural vibrancy of a scene to be recorded in its full richness.

I can completely understand why those who have slowly become accustomed to the thinner digital colors from later CMOS cameras now find the D100 colors to be a bit over the top. Personally, I find them to look refreshingly analog.
