And as he freely admitted he lacks the personal disciple to use the DSLR in the same fashion. Also he's primarily into street shooting, the 5D isn't a subtle piece of equipment for that type of work. He raised some interesting points while I was talking to him. The one thing many people like about digital is the freedom to experiment & shoot things you normally wouldn't. His view was while that is good it can also have the effect of diluting/blurring the photographers focus (no pun intended). I don't know. it was an interesting discussion in any event. BTW, not long after I wrote that he was going to look at the R3A, he found a buyer for the 5D :-) Cheers, Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
