Re: Canon 1000d still going strong.

While it's clean and all systems working, an old camera is a fine instrument to work with.  I use a Nikon D300, which is 8 years old and has in excess of 100,000 clicks.  The autofocus is quick and precise, the colors are beautiful, the interface is awesome.  That camera does everything perfectly.  Unless you need to take night photographs in hot weather, older cameras are the photographer's best friends!!!  Here's a snap!

Shot in broad daylight under a tree.  Strong flash used to light-up subject and cut shadows.
