The feel of the analogue part is that of the EOS-1v, right, but the user interface to the digital part is a mere catastrophe. Coming from the strikingly perfect interface of the D30, the 1D interface must be thought up from somebody who is a genetic mixture of Bill Gates and Groucho Marx. On top of that production models do show a dark horizontal line in the upper image area and they show horizontal banding in dark and/or underexposed areas, moreso at high ISO rates. No, from my own impression and the results I have seen from production model cameras, this one is certainly skipped by me. The price for the 1D and the comparatively good quality of the pictures from my D30 is only the last argument. -- Michael Quack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
