Chip,
With all dues respect you can call a camera what you will,
but does that make the EOS-3 a light pro body too?
What consitutes that? Is it because pros don't use them
heavily? (just a joke)
Gee, I know a pro who religiously uses an Elan IIe, better
tell him he is only an amateur or must he use an EOS-1V? ;-)
Another uses an advanced amateur D30. Guess he better stop
and use an EOS-1D since Canon says "this is their pro model."
BTW, I for one absolutely BELIEVE age is a factor.
Ever buy a 10 year old car? Bet you had to maintain it
a lot more than a newer one. Same with cameras.
Wait until the LCD panel dies on your old
camera and can't be replaced. Then the command dial.
Chip, its your opinion, but please understand this is only
an opinion as well.
