Hi gang:
After looking at the Canon EOS 5D at $3,300 U.S, I'm probably going to
switch to that camera. With Canon's resources and it's ability to make it's
own sensors,
Some people will automatically assume that the company with most
resources will always make the best products, but I think there are
enough examples of situations where this has not been the case. In fact,
it seems to me that really good products will most of the time come from
a more minor player...
Nor do I think it's always a Good Thing to use the Latest And Greatest
technology (perhaps to be read as: "technology that's *not* the greatest
because it isn't mature yet.")
I think it's clear that they will be the front runner and
leader of DSLR cameras. Now with the advantages full frame (you can argue
that if you wish}in a relatively small body, I think I'm going to switch and
purchase one in the next 6 months. Also there is more software support for
Canon amd Nikon, like DxO Optics 3.0, which does not support Pentax. Also
more lens available.
Another reason why I have a Pentax, is that I've been assuming that
there are more good lenses *at a price I'm willing to pay*. But I could
be wrong.
If Pentax comes out with something close for close the price, I'll
re-consider.
Your thoughts please.
