What it's all come down to...
Been a photographer since before the Nikon F Photomic T was the hottest
thing to hang around your neck (and I did). Been through a Rollei 6x6 2.8E Planar, a few Contaflexes, a Leica RF, some Minoltas (SRT-101), a Miranda, Olympus, and a few Canons, etc. plus I did the permanent darkroom thing-- Durst, Schneider Componon lenses, etc. Even won a couple of amateur awards for my stuff way back when I liven in New York. But I gotta tell ya, I got a couple of Canon point and shoots now that meet 98% or my photo needs. Truly amazing equipment... |

If you tried the Nikon D3 you would consider those Canon point and shoots, or anything else from Canon, akin and as primitive as rubbing two sticks together to produce fire.

While they're obviously not the top dogs of the digital camera pack, it *is* truly astounding what some of them can do, innit? Let's hear it for the wonderful *range* of gear that's available today, which makes it possible for just about everybody to find and enjoy hardware that suits his or her needs, regardless of where on the spectrum they fall. -- Blinky Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org Need a new news feed? http://blinkynet.net/comp/newfeed.html |
