Odd statement from Canon
That to have implemented an anti-dust system in their top
camera would have been too expensive. I don't get this? Olympus E-300 is $700 and it has it. Canon's top DSLR is $8000.00... "Bittorrents are REFUNDS for all the BAD movie products Hollywood never gave us refunds for in the past" |

Would you please stop with these ridiculous posts? The only ridiculous thing is your stupid reply. Rich has a good point; if Olympus can afford to provide an extremely effective and efficient dust removal system in a $700 camera, why can't Canon provide something similar in an $8000 camera? Perhaps your bad tempered reply reflects your inability to accept that manufacturers other than Canon can actually do some things better than the god you worship. |

In ,
Brian Baird scwibbled: There may be patents in play that would prevent other dSLR manufacturers from using the Olympus method without paying hefty licensing fees. Would you please stop with these ridiculous posts? Is this group for pre-approved members only? When compared (unfairly) with the kind of drivel and bad-temper often posted in open forums, he does rather well don't you think? And I find them thought provoking on occasions, or just of no particular interest at others. If you new anything about group dynamics, you'd know that most contain their 'sentinel' types, and have a role to play. So how about a bit of laissez-faire, please? jm2p -- Nigel_H |

It's not just the 'dust shaker', what about the Olympus 'in-camera' ' Pixel Mapping? Surely, that's something that should be standard on every dslr, irrespective of make or model? You've only got to read the various online forums to realise how prevalent bad pixels are, yet only Olympus allow you to sort them out quickly and conveniently. If only Olympus hadn't chosen to go with the 4/3 rds system, their market share would surely be far larger than it is. |

The list of possibilities is long, licensing fees, redesigning bodies to fit extra mechanisms. But the article in the Spanish mag had the Canon exec stating that dust removal systems were a possibility, but not a probability. He didn't sat that Canon wouldn't do it... -- Skip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com |
