Re: Why Canon?

I am also very pleased with the look of the images coming out of my camera. All three of my Canon DSLR bodies produced the same pleasing skin tones and natural looking colors. The much criticized anti-aliasing filter that Canon always uses has never given me the supposedly soft images that all tests seem to show. If I need more sharpness in certain images, it's not exactly rocket science to improve that with the simplest post processing.

Like Digirame, I find the Canon in camera jpg processing to be very effective. When I shoot jpeg, I keep the contrast low and apply post processing to get a pleasing final image. When I shoot raw,  I find the out of camera image is quite good, and often requires much less post processing than I would expect.

So, all in all, I like Canon DSLR's, I like their huge selection of good quality glass, and I feel no great compulsion to move away from the brand. If I had very specialized needs, and found that no Canon product could meet that need, I'd obviously look elsewhere. That hasn't happened yet.
