new 10d mkII with 1.3x sensor

Alas, as soon as Preddy or one of his clones attaches himself to a thread, further rational discussion becomes impossible. Phil It would be nice if you guys would just quit replying to him altogether. Or at least quit quoting his posts. It's hard enough keeping him kill-filed without continually coming across his blather quoted in reply after reply in a thread that I had previously found useful. This newsgroup isn't much use if I have to kill-file EVERY THREAD to avoid P-boy being quoted all over the place. -- Carl Miller http://www.quickinfo247.com/8557444 |

... "Mark B." wrote in message "Bob Hatch" wrote in message ... "Mark B." wrote in message You are right on. There is no way that Canon would do this. It would be like taking the same sensor used in the 10D and putting it in a cheaper body, disabling some of the features, adding a lens, slowing down the burst rate, and reducing the buffer then selling it for about 1/3 the price. Just couldn't be done. No way. If they did that 10D sales would drop like a rock. LOL. Apples & oranges. You're talking about a $500 difference between the 10D & Digital Rebel. I'm talking about a $3,000 difference between the 10D & 1D MkII. Get a grip. Mark Ya, you're right. Can't be done. Won't be done. Impossible. It would be like back when the D30 was a hot item fro about $3000.00 having Canon introduce a 4.15 mp camera with a CCD sensor and then try to sell it for, oh, I don't know, maybe over $5,000. It's just something that couldn't happen. Wouldn't sell, wouldn't be a success. Gotcha. You did me in again. -- I don't know many enthusiasts buying the 1D. Of course it's selling, but to pros who can easily justify the extra $ for the larger sensor with less noise, high frame rate & larger buffer, and weather sealed body. So you missed the point I was making. $500 between the 300D & 10D $2,500 between the 10D & 1D MkII The gap between the latter is 5x the gap between the 100D/10D. If I'm wrong and Canon puts the 1.3x sensor in a 10D successor, I'll admit I was wrong. I'm pretty comfortable in saying I won't have to do that. Mark |

Mark Don't forget, though, pros justified a large percentage difference between, say, the ElanII ($400) and 1v ($2000), even though the "sensor" was exactly the same!
