Great story! I enjoyed it very much. The otters sure look cute.

A lot of those user agreements are null and void because they are unconstitutional and outright criminal. But I'm not sure about USA legal system.

Well I disagree. Canon lens lineup is more complete and up to date than nikons. Nikon is trailing in most FL. As a system, Canon still dominates.

I came from Olympus and I beg to differ. Canon is easy to navigate while nikon is chaotic. I still have problems to operate a nikon when i play it with in a store. Looks like Nikon was mad by a...

Hey, that's a really nice squirell photo.

They are sharper and focus nearer. The long telephotos IMHO aren't good for macro, because you need a very high shutter speed for eliminating shake. They also give you less DOF.   but if you are...

Dissagre. The best is the 70-300VC tamron.

Crap is crap in every culture.

Could be the shutter. Maybe the shutter is dead.

Canons 18mp sensor still looking good.

Disagree. There are huge differences between generations of sensors no matter what format.

IMHO your next lens should be a fast standard zoom, like a Tamron 17-50 2.8. I don't see what use a telephoto has for a baby.

Dissagre on the ultra wide. It's atrocious for portraits.

It can be a tool and it can be a toy. And I don't mean that in a derogative sense. I'm not earning money with photohraphy. It's all about fun. I don't use tools for fun.

It's all about performance. The more performance the better. And more performance for the least money, the best.

If a camera doesn't matter then we would all be owning p&s or cell phones. Ofcourse it does. People like to repeat IMHO senseless famous quotes.

Well I'd love a new 24mp sensor. More pixels that are the same quality as the older generation are certainly a step forward and an argument for upgrade.

And why did you switch to Canon?
