I feel like a race trader.

what the hell's the matter with you?

and what cannon camera did you get?

A race trader, eh?

I'll trade you three guatamalens for one korean.

DIE: you obviously missed the 5D in the title.

actually, what happened was carina ordered this camera and it went on sale for $300 less today so she told me to buy this one, she'd pay me back and return the one she bought. funny thing is that I got a Kodak SLR/n coming on friday. she was going to do the same thing for me with that camera (I didn't have enough in paypal), but by the time I bought it, I was able to tranfer the funds over the pp.

ah, yeah, I did miss the 5D. so why the switch to Canon?

no, I didn't miss that, it was a general question as to why the switch from Nikon to Canon

ask her, not me.

hahahahaha
it's NOT a switch
I shoot a lot of "big" shows and Nikon is always a minority. Canon as a company is more generous to lending equipment to pro photogs. I've been in photo pits using the same lens specs with a Canon pro and we both take pics and i see little differences. Also, I've helped "newbies" a few times who had Canons and lenses not even as good as mine. I've helped them set up their cameras for no flash photography and they had brighter pics than i did.
Also, 5d=full frame
nikon doesn't do that
I have a Canon 35mm...no issues...so why not.
I will go to shows with both and see for myself.

CANON RULES, NIKON DROOLS.

I never knocked Canon, it was merely a question.

I knock canon cause their bodies and lenses eat butt.
but their sensors are nice.

I have a Canon Rebel G 35mm. I bought it a few years ago, the camera still works amazing. It's definitely one of my favorite cameras to use.
