Up to your usual biased bs again Stacey. Put your money where your mouth
is. If "you think" the Canon lenses are so poor,


Interesting that canon users are the ones talking about needing to try 3-4
samples of a certain lens to get a decent one?



then post some of your fantastic photographic images showing me this
great quality you are getting with your camera


No problem.. Shot these last weekend, hand held in poor light.

What annoys me in this NG is the childish "my camera is better than
yours" mentality.


?? I find it comical this guys makes a rant saying the issues his brand has
are meaningless but of course it's strong point it what all cameras should
be measured by!


If you prefer Nikon, use Nikon; if you prefer Canon, use Canon. Why rubbish anything that is not YOUR preferred brand. The
sales figures for the professional market speaks for itself!


So this 'sales figure' herring isn't to try to make your brand better, like
you just complained about being a childish activity? :-)


Hi Stacey,

thanks very much for posting those images! Very impressive indeed; there is certainly great edge to edge sharpness in your images. I will try to take some images in similar circumstances to yours in the next few days and post them here, as you did. I will be the first to admit that I might be pushing it to match the edge to edge sharpness in your images. We will see what happens :-)

Thanks again,
Brian.
