That's true, but a) I never said that this isn't the case and b) I
don't think it's particularly huge advantage for Canon.
Most pros are using newer cameras these days. If the AF-S lenses
don't work with the older camera bodies, big deal. It wouldn't kill
Canon if you couldn't use IS lenses at all with EOS 650s, for
example. That sort of thing really affects hobbyists and people on a
budget, but it's gains in the pro market that Nikon are aiming for
here, I would think.
