Don't get me wrong the *ist D is a great tool but the 1.5x crop factor is less an advantage than an imposition in the end.
Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA I think you are right if wide angle photography is your thing, but if it's nature and wildlife it certainly is nice to have the illusion of that extra reach.... I know cropping accomplishes the same thing in film-based camera's but somehow I think it's different, although I know it really isn't. Weird reasoning I know, but it works for me.. Vic
