What? Are you saying that marketing departments are supposed to be consistent and tell the truth? They are selling soap any which way they can. You think the Canon Rebel is responsible for all those really cool action shots that form the background of their ads?
I gotta believe that any marketing department would have no qualms about taking back to back products and telling the opposite story and not even think about it. That is the job - make the product look it's best. Funny world we live in. <VBG> -- Best regards, Bruce Sunday, August 8, 2004, 10:54:53 AM, you wrote: JT> Marketing for the DA 16-45: JT> "Its simple, functional design, coupled with the elimination of an JT> aperture ring, considerably improves the camera's operability."
