I take your point, and in no way will i defend one brand over another. I use the tools I do because i consider them the best for the job I want them to do. It may well be that Canon decides to ditch in-lens IS in favour of in-camera IS, but it won't bother me - I have some gear that I expect will continue working for some time to come, and if it breaks i also expect that i will be able to get it fixed for some time to come. So my point is that far from being high and dry, I would consider that my options of a support network, 1st and 3rd party, are not bad..... ;-) Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________
