Perhaps I'd better add a few words about why I ask this question. I've read a review that almost quotes the Canon marketing department on this issue. I'm ok with that, but when the author serves this as the truth I react. So now I have a debate going in a Norwegian forum about this issue. BTW. I didn't start it, some other guy questioned the quoting first.
Speaking of angels. I'm not on a crusade in this issue. I'm simply asking for first hand experiences. First hand experiences are a lot more worth than defensive marketing.

It's a useless debate, quite similar to the CCD/CMOS debate in futility: Even if you oversimplified issues sufficiently to make a simple answer possible, it would change in a few months because both systems are being continually improved by their makers. If you're going to waste your time speculating, do it on a more useful issue like the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
